Subject[RFC PATCH 02/10] alpha: Notice if we're being run under QEMU
Date
When building a generic kernel, do a run-time check on the serial
number, like we do for MILO. When building a custom kernel, make
this a configure-time check.

+ ---help---
+ Assume the presence of special features supported by QEMU PALcode

+ Generic kernels will auto-detect QEMU. But when building a
+ system-specific kernel, the assumption is that we want to

+
+ If unsure, say N.
