Kernel 3.3 is released, and so is kvm-kmod-3.3 now as well. The package is available from

See [1] for further details on kvm-kmod.

KVM changes since kvm-kmod-3.2:
- more MMU/MMIO speedup
- CPU feature whitelisting (BMI1/BMI2/FMA/AVX2)
- cleanups (e.g. the schedule PV-MMU removal)

kvm-kmod changes:
- fixed build against 2.6.32.40+

Note that the PMU feature of KVM in 3.3 is practically not available via kvm-kmod as it depends on kernel features only available starting with 3.3.
