Merge pull request #1010 from offlinehacker.
Although this is a release canidate version of kernel 3.12, there are
reasons for merging this anyway, as discussed in #1010 and #1006.

Thanks to @offlinehacker for this and the initial pull request.

7856ba881a linux: Enable proper blkio controller support
Having BLK_CGROUP is not enough, you need BLK_DEV_THROTTLING or
CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED to do anything useful.

27a810346a Revert "linux: really provide /proc/config.gz"
This reverts commit 68ce9e91e1.

/proc/config.gz is available after "modprobe configs"
and in
/run/booted-system/kernel-modules/config

68ce9e91e1 linux: really provide /proc/config.gz
Currently there is no /proc/config.gz, even though the configuration
indicates it. This fixes it.

f155a35d7d Move kernelExtraConfig to common-config.nix (for x86)
It's bad to have the kernel config scattered across two places.  (This
should also be done for the other architectures.)

Also, restore Xen and KVM guest support in Linux 3.10.

7ce325f3e0 Unify the Linux kernel configurations
Having N different copies of the NixOS kernel configuration is bad
because these copies tend to diverge.  For instance, our 3.10 config
lacked some modules that were enabled in older configs, probably
because the 3.10 config had been copied off an earlier version of some
older kernel config.

So now there is a single kernel config in common-config.nix.  It has a
few conditionals to deal with new/removed kernel options, but
otherwise it's pretty straightforward.

Also, a lot of cut&paste boilerplate between the kernel Nix
expressions is gone (such as preConfigure).
