Here is the patch: https://github.com/stefanha/linux/commit/a6d06644e3a58e57a774e77d7dc34c4a5a2e7496 Or as an email if you want to track it down in your inbox: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-virtualization/msg14616.html The code you posted is equivalent, the only additional thing my patch did was to update doc comments in include/linux/virtio.h.
