Commit 64c8f7b9a24b1de710ad8413da503d61ede6ae45 to Linux 2.6.32.y
broke kvm-kmod. There are preprocessor directives in kvm-kmod that
appear to be intended to remedy this, but there is a logical error in
them. I have attached a patch that corrects that.

I am not on the list, so please CC any replies to me.

Yeah logic is hard, and I mess it up way too often. :)

Can you repost with proper patch subject/description and signed-off?
Thanks in advance!
