I agree with Sergey.  Most unit tests in kvm-unit-tests are not limited
to KVM, though some are.  Otherwise, the tests would be in linux.git
rather than a separate repo.

I'm not sure if it makes sense to have a test driver for vmd, but that
would be welcome as well (with the caveat that I would not use it).
