Title:
  pointless kvm disabled by bios message

Status in OEM Priority Project:
  Fix Committed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  On boot I see:

  kvm: disabled by bios

  message. Can that be hidden by default? On ubuntu, we already have
  excellent kvm-ok utility that is suppose to detect that. And if a user
  doesn't know what a VM is and never going to be using kvm, there is no
  need to print that message on each boot =)
