Re: linux-next: build failure after merge of the kvm-arm tree

[Eric Auger <eric.auger@linaro.org>]

Dear all,

Thanks Stephen for reporting the problem. Indeed removing irq.h header
file is no more possible since commit
c77dcacb397519b6ade8f08201a4a90a7f4f751e, "KVM: Move more code under
CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD" which moves among other things
kvm_register_irq_ack_notifier and kvm_unregister_irq_ack_notifier in
eventfd.c.

including virt/kvm/ioapic.h might fix the problem but I am OoO next week
and cannot investigate further right now.

Please can you remove that commit. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best Regards

Eric
