If protected virtualization is active on s390, the virtio queues are
not accessible to the host, unless VIRTIO_F_IOMMU_PLATFORM has been
negotiated. Use the new arch_validate_virtio_features() interface to
fail probe if that's not the case, preventing a host error on access
attempt.

What bothers me here is that arch code depends on virtio now.
It works even with a modular virtio when functions are inline,
but it seems fragile: e.g. it breaks virtio as an out of tree module,
since layout of struct virtio_device can change.


The code was only called from virtio.c so it should be fine.

And my understanding is that we don't need to care about the kABI issue during upstream development?

Thanks



I'm not sure what to do with this yet, will try to think about it
over the weekend. Thanks!
