I don't feel it to be mergeable yet, but with your comments, I expect to get it in a good shape soon. This is not extensibly tested (but it will). These patches applies ontop of raw qemu, so they are not kvm-specific _at all_. I've choosen to start by abstracting kqemu first, since this is what we have already in the tree. The abstraction of kqemu is also, not complete. It cover mostly areas that are common to kvm, i.e., provide functions that kvm could implement as-is. Comments are welcome, rants not so. Have fun.
