linux-kvm needs various standard kernel features and diagnostic options
in order to run the Ubuntu kernel test suite.

A test kernel with these changes has demonstrated positive test results
(most kernel test suites pass, some don't due to intentionally disabled
configs).

No code changes here, just enabling a bunch of configs and their
prerequisites.

As we've discussed via irc, the generic kernel sets some additional
selinux configs that are missing in the pull request.

Some examples are:

CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM=y
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM_VALUE=0
CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DISABLE=y

The remaining changes look to me though.
