This one is actually used (so my 800 line perl monster didn't bark):
    $ git grep -n KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT next-20150122
    next-20150122:arch/arm/kvm/Kconfig:27:  select KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT
    next-20150122:arch/arm64/kvm/Kconfig:30:        select KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT
    next-20150122:arch/x86/kvm/Kconfig:42:  select KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT
    next-20150122:virt/kvm/Kconfig:47:config KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT
    next-20150122:virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:998:#ifdef CONFIG_KVM_GENERIC_DIRTYLOG_READ_PROTECT
