[PATCH 4/4] virtio: Enable netpoll interface for netconsole logging

From: Rusty Russell
Date: Tue Mar 11 2008 - 08:07:55 EST


From: "Amit Shah" <amitshah@xxxxxxx>

Add a new poll_controller handler that the netpoll interface needs.

This enables netconsole logging from a kvm guest over the virtio
net interface.
