Relaying a request on behalf of an Amazon EC2 customer.  The generic
kernel enables CONFIG_KSM, but the cloud kernel disables this.  The
customer makes extensive use of KSM features in EC2 and would like to
request that the feature be enabled for the cloud kernel.

Since the cloud kernel is intended to be optimized for boot time and
size for common cloud usecases, it's worth understanding how much code
is actually enabled by CONFIG_KSM, and how this affects the size and
boot time (if at all).
