From: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie at linuxfoundation.org>

This allows kvm acceleration on arm systems that support it. "host" is the
best option I can find right now to attempt to use the acceleration. It
potentially might not be correct but arm systems are sensitive to the
correct values and I don't want to encode the autobuilders CPU type here.
