[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] [RESENT-INLINE] Remove unnecessary CONFIG_EVENTFD preprocessor conditional to satisfy link

[Christopher Friedt <chrisfriedt@gmail.com>]

The file ivshmem.c unconditionally references event_notifier_init_fd() in util/event_notifier-posix.c, even if CONFIG_EVENTFD is not defined. On platforms where CONFIG_POSIX is defined, but CONFIG_EVENTFD is not defined, that results in an undefined symbol referenced from ivshmem.c and the link fails. That applies to Mac OS X, but possibly other BSD-based distros.

Note: there is nothing specific to eventfd inside and event_notifier_init() also fails unconditionally if CONFIG_EVENTFD is not defined.
