This from the newer kernel package, but I doubt this configuration has
been changed in the openSUSE kernel:

susi:~ # grep PARAVIRT /boot/config-4.0.0-rc4-1.g126fc64-desktop
CONFIG_PARAVIRT=y
# CONFIG_PARAVIRT_DEBUG is not set
# CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS is not set
# CONFIG_PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING is not set
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK=y

So yes, PARAVIRT is enabled.

Best regards,
