When checking whether a kernel supports virtio or it is Xen-based, it is
assumed that the feature has the kernel module for it; this will fail if
the feature is built-in in the kernel, misrepresenting it.
The solution is to check the kernel configuration (/boot/config-$kver)
whether the feature is built-in, in case there is no module available.
This fixes the virtio detection on Ubuntu kernels, where virtio is
built in and not as module.
