advisory added to svn

Whiteboard: (none) => advisory

Tested Mageia 5 i586 host with every VM guest OS known to man.  Everything worked OK.  I haven't tested any VMs with sound, so I'll do that with my VM at home, hopefully tomorrow.

Tested Mageia 5 x86-64 host with Mageia 5 i586 guest. Everything worked OK, including sound.
