Load the supported arch's module. 2. Load the unsupported arch's module. (loading error) 3. Unload the unsupported arch's module. You'll get the following error message after step 3. "BUG: unable to handle to handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx" The problem here is that the unsupported arch's module overwrites kvm_arch_ops of the supported arch's module at step 2. This patch initializes kvm_arch_ops upon loading architecture specific kvm module, and prevents overwriting kvm_arch_ops when kvm_arch_ops is already set correctly.
