yes please.

Will do. I'll make it available to all active kernel versions + future ones.

As it turns out, we already have a similar fragment for vmware guests:

cfg/vmware-guest.cfg

--------------------

CONFIG_VMWARE_BALLOON=m

CONFIG_VMWARE_PVSCSI=y

CONFIG_VMWARE_VMCI=m

CONFIG_VSOCKETS=m

CONFIG_VMWARE_VMCI_VSOCKETS=m

CONFIG_VMXNET3=y

CONFIG_DRM_VMWGFX=m

CONFIG_DRM_VMWGFX_FBCON=y

CONFIG_FUSION=y

CONFIG_FUSION_SPI=y

CONFIG_FUSION_FC=y

CONFIG_FUSION_SAS=y

CONFIG_FUSION_MAX_SGE=128

CONFIG_FUSION_CTL=y

CONFIG_FUSION_LAN=y

CONFIG_FUSION_LOGGING=y

CONFIG_SCSI_MPT2SAS=y

CONFIG_SCSI_MPT2SAS_MAX_SGE=128

CONFIG_SCSI_MPT2SAS_LOGGING=y

CONFIG_SCSI_MPT3SAS=y

CONFIG_SCSI_MPT3SAS_MAX_SGE=128

CONFIG_SCSI_MPT3SAS_LOGGING=y

------------- 

To stay consistent with that naming, I'll call this virtual-box-guest.cfg, and it can be enabled
via KERNEL_FEATURES when needed. 

I'm hesitant to globally enable it, since we don't need those modules on all linux-yocto
kernels, just ones that are going to run on virtual box. 

I could enable them for qemux86*, since those already have virtio configs enabled by
default and these have a similar goal.

Thoughts ? I'd like to make sure that sounds reasonable, before spending the time to 
make the changes and test.
