The cloud kernel generally targets VM guests on the Microsoft Azure and Amazon EC2 cloud environments, neither of which benefit from VIRTIO_BLK driver being statically linked as you describe. I think that's the primary reason for reluctance to make your requested change. For background, the Azure and AWS clouds present well-defined device models, making it straightforward for us to construct targeted kernel configs for them. noah
