[PATCH 1/2] create /sys/hypervisor when needed

From: Michael Holzheu
Date: Mon May 15 2006 - 04:50:15 EST


To have a home for all hypervisors, this patch
creates /sys/hypervisor.
A new config option SYS_HYPERVISOR is introduced,
which should to be set by architecture dependent
hypervisors (e.g. s390 or Xen).
