I booted recent kernels with a ramdisk in kvm, and then looked at what modules were loaded. In order to support kvm:

if=virtio:
 module=virtio_blk
 CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=y

if=scsi:
 module=sym53c8xx (I think that that is):
 CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2=y

If we could flip those to 'y' and their dependencies, I think our kernel would for relevant '-drive if=' without a ramdisk.
