I've committed this patch.
In addition to the reboot problem, it fixes savevm/loadvm/migration on AMD
machines.
Thanks,
Uri.

The following series of patches fixes several kvm problems. I believe
they are important and well-tested enough to be included in 2.6.20,
especially the host reboot fix on AMD machines.

error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function

There's an obvious typo in svm_{get,set}_idt, causing it to access the ldt
instead.
Because these functions are only called for save/load on AMD, the bug does not
impact normal operation. With the fix, save/load works as expected on AMD
hosts.
This allows netbsd 3.1 i386 to get further along installing.

Check pte permission bits in walk_addr(), instead of scattering the checks all
over the code. This has the following benefits:
1. We no longer set the accessed bit for accessed which fail permission checks.
2. Setting the accessed bit is simplified.
3. Under some circumstances, we used to
Rith the recent guest page fault change, we perform access checks on our own
instead of relying on the cpu. This means we have to perform the nx checks as
well.
Software like the google toolbar on windows appears to rely on this somehow.

Perhaps the most visible change is that -no-acpi is no longer required
to install Windows (it is still recommended as the Windows ACPI HAL will
eat a lot of cpu time).
Changes from kvm-11:
- More migration work (Uri Lublin)
- savevm/loadvm (and migration) work on AMD (Leonard Norrgard)

Hi Frank,
It seems it would be easier if you'd build kvm on a more recent linux
kernel (version 2.6.16 or later).
It wouldn't be ES 4 then. The way the enterprise releases work is that
no software is upgraded, therefore you don't find new and exciting
changes in the way

I was wondering if SuSE Linux 10.1 and 10.2 can boot on top of KVM?

KVM has the same problem at the moment. Instead of using something like
