I proposed something like that in an earlier version but Frederic asked
me to propose a fix to the KVM headers instead.

Just in case fixing the context tracking subsystem is preferred,
the patch below fixes the problem also.

Subject: [PATCH] context_tracking: fix !CONFIG_KVM compile: add stub guest
enter/exit

When KVM is not enabled, or not available on a platform, the KVM
headers should not be included. Instead, just define stub
__guest_[enter|exit] functions.
