From: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>

We can drop a device from the build only when it isn't referenced from
code we build.  References come in two forms: extern symbols, and qdev
driver names.

Unresolved extern symbols pose no real danger, because they fail
safely at link time.  But the dropped code doesn't define any extern
symbols anyway.

Unresolved driver names get detected only at runtime, so we better be
extra careful.  The only occurences of the driver name outside the
code dropped by this patch is in machine type compat properties
(safe), and those aren't even compiled for RHEL (extra safe).

Since there's no CONFIG_IVSHMEM, we need to hack the Makefile
directly.  Creating CONFIG_IVSHMEM upstream would be nice, but we're
out of time.
