I think even with KVM built in, it's guaranteed to load after the file system:

* KVM is loaded using `module_init()` (e.g., kvm-amd `module_init()` [1]).
* `module_init()` is defined as `__initcall()` [2].
* `__initcall()` is defined as `device_initcall()` [3].
* Finally, looking at [3] and scrolling up a few lines,
`device_init_call()`'s appear to happen after the file system init
calls.
