UML is affected:

I wasted an hour finding out why it is crashing.
Instead of testing kernels I really should read more LKML. ;-)

Hmm, good question. 8-)
AFAIK I've removed the bttv card from this workstation.
I can tell you more in a few days, I have currently no access to this machine.

Yes, every time I build a kernel to be used on KVM I forget something. :-\

We could introduce a section in Kconfig which contains selections for
common use cases.
E.g. as Linus requested for minimal distro requirements but also
selections for various common
guest configurations.
