Currently, CONFIG_VHOST depends on CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION. But vhost is not necessarily for VM since it's a generic userspace and kernel communication protocol. Such dependency may prevent archs without virtualization support from using vhost. To solve this, a dedicated vhost menu is created under drivers so CONIFG_VHOST can be decoupled out of CONFIG_VIRTUALIZATION. While at it, also squash Kconfig.vringh into vhost Kconfig file. This avoids the trick of conditional inclusion from VOP or CAIF. Then it will be easier to introduce new vringh users and common dependency for both vringh and vhost.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
