<content type='text'>
No need to get into the submenu to disable all VIRTIO-related
config entries.

This makes it easier to disable all VIRTIO config options
without entering the submenu. It will also enable one
to see that en/dis-abled state from the outside menu.

This is only intended to change menuconfig UI, not change
the config dependencies.

Lguest seems to be rather unused these days. It has seen only patches
ensuring it still builds the last two years and its official state is
"Odd Fixes".

Remove it in order to be able to clean up the paravirt code.

<title>virtio_ring: Support DMA APIs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:780bc7903a32edb63be138487fd981694d993610</id>
<content type='text'>
virtio_ring currently sends the device (usually a hypervisor)
physical addresses of its I/O buffers.  This is okay when DMA
addresses and physical addresses are the same thing, but this isn't
always the case.  For example, this never works on Xen guests, and
it is likely to fail if a physical "virtio" device ever ends up
behind an IOMMU or swiotlb.

The immediate use case for me is to enable virtio on Xen guests.
For that to work, we need vring to support DMA address translation
as well as a corresponding change to virtio_pci or to another
driver.

virtio-input is basically evdev-events-over-virtio, so this driver isn't
much more than reading configuration from config space and forwarding
incoming events to the linux input layer.

The ABI *is* stable, and has been for a while now.
Drop Kconfig warning saying that it's not guaranteed
to work.

<content type='text'>
Always mark pages with PageBalloon even if balloon compaction is disabled
and expose this mark in /proc/kpageflags as KPF_BALLOON.

Also this patch adds three counters into /proc/vmstat: "balloon_inflate",
"balloon_deflate" and "balloon_migrate".  They accumulate balloon
activity.  Current size of balloon is (balloon_inflate - balloon_deflate)
pages.

All generic balloon code now gathered under option CONFIG_MEMORY_BALLOON.
It should be selected by ballooning driver which wants use this feature.
Currently virtio-balloon is the only user.

The CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL config item has not carried much meaning for a
while now and is almost always enabled by default. As agreed during the
Linux kernel summit, remove it from any "depends on" lines in Kconfigs.
