As the code and explanation says it's needed for vio targets, aka if you
want to run multiple OS instances on a single system, and you absolutely
want to run vio on some of the instances and run the server under debian
linux (by default it runs AIX or OS/400), which lacks the infrastructure
for this server anyway.
