SRU Justification: Impact: Users cannot boot KVM guests on i386 hosts 2. How bug addressed: The upstream commit at http://www.spinics.net/list= s/kvm/msg40800.html fixed it 3. Patch: A kernel patch is attached to this bug. 4. Reproduce: boot an i386 kernel on a kvm-capable host. Try to boot a k= vm guest. 5. Regression potential: since this is cherrypicking a commit from a futu= re upstream which had already been changed, regression is possible. Howeve= r if there is a regression, it should only affect users of KVM on i386 host= s, which currently fail anyway.
