qemu-kvm/0016-Use-qemu-kvm-in-documentation-instead-of-qemu-system.patch
Danilo C. L. de Paula b190fee134 Update qemu-kvm with 4.1.0 patches 
Since qemu-kvm tree is syncronized with 4.1.0 now, it's
easier to handle this as 4.1.0 and not as rc4

O-Subject: [RHEV-7.1 qemu-kvm-rhev PATCHv4] Use qemu-kvm in documentation instead of qemu-system-i386
Bugzilla: 1140620

RH-Acked-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
RH-Acked-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
From: Miroslav Rezanina <mrezanin@redhat.com>
We change the name and location of qemu-kvm binaries. Update documentation
to reflect this change. Only architectures available in RHEL are updated.
