Most of Linux is device drivers. Virtual machines have virtualized hardware that doesn't work the same as (and is usually simpler than) real hardware.

There are many parts of Linux which can be tested in a VM (filesystems and core network code come to mind), but "kernel development" in general includes parts which need higher fidelity.
