kvm development moving to git

kvm kernel code is now developed using git. This was done for two reasons:
- with the paravirtualization work, we have code in the kernel beyond drivers/kvm/. Subversion is not quite up to hosting an entire kernel tree efficiently.
- people have expressed interest in maintaining long-term branches of kvm. This is something that git is quite good at, while with subversion this requires an account on our systems.

You can pull from my repository by issuing the command

git pull git://kvm.qumranet.com/home/avi/kvm/linux-2.6

Please do not clone from this URL. Instead, clone from git.kernel.org so that you clog their pipes instead of mine. Then issue the pull command as described above.

The module source files have been removed from the subversion tree. To compile an external module, first copy the files from a Linux tree:

make LINUX=/path/to/linux/tree/that/has/pulled/from/the/kvm/repo sync
make
