[PATCH 3.19 100/123] kvm: move advertising of KVM_CAP_IRQFD to common code

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 24 2015 - 13:08:27 EST


3.19-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit dc9be0fac70a2ad86e31a81372bb0bdfb6945353 upstream.

POWER supports irqfds but forgot to advertise them. Some userspace does
not check for the capability, but others check it---thus they work on
x86 and s390 but not POWER.

To avoid that other architectures in the future make the same mistake, let
common code handle KVM_CAP_IRQFD the same way as KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE.
