[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/2] return available ioeventfds count in kvm_has_many_ioeventfds()

[Amos Kong]

Older kernels have a 6 device limit on the KVM io bus.
This patch makes kvm_has_many_ioeventfds() return available
ioeventfd count. ioeventfd will be disabled if there is
no 7 available ioeventfds.
