PATCH RESEND 1/1 KVM: Fix virtualization menu help text

What guest drivers?

---

An August 18 patch from Jan Engelhardt (06bfb7e) added help text for the virtualization menu. Unfortunately the text is misleading, as "guest drivers" are usually interpreted to mean "drivers running inside the guest", which is not the case for kvm.

Linus, please apply.
