implements the host support for virtio devices in Linux >= 2.6.25 guests. Network performance shows a huge improvement with virtio_net, which should be good for the build farm (which uses Samba/CIFS to mount the file system of the host). * Kernel headers for 2.6.26-rc5 added to build KVM 69. Also added the 2.6.25 headers, which turned out to be too old for KVM 69. svn path=/nixpkgs/trunk/; revision=11985
