    s390x/kvm: Officially require at least kernel 3.15 · 7d69e8bc

    Since QEMU v2.10, the KVM acceleration does not work on older kernels
    anymore since the code accidentally requires the KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL
    capability now - it should have been optional instead.
    Instead of fixing the bug, we asked in the ChangeLog of QEMU 2.11 - 3.0
    that people should speak up if they still need support of QEMU running
    with KVM on older kernels, but seems like nobody really complained.
    Thus let's make this official now and turn it into a proper error
    message, telling the users to use at least kernel 3.15 now.
