Hi,

I'm trying to use ioeventfds for notification between guests.  After
assigning a handful of ioeventfds I was getting a "no space left on
device error".  The culprit seems to be that only 6 devices are
allowed for a guest on the kvm IO bus.  The comment indicates a
somewhat low number was chosen.  Can the limit be increased to
something on the order of the number of file descriptors a process
could have?

There's in fact a patch on the list to do just that, at least three people have been hitting it simultaneously.

Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic.
