From bb64da9aba89765fee74b395967b18a7d6c364e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Borntraeger Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2017 16:02:52 +0100 Subject: KVM: s390: mark irq_state.flags as non-usable Old kernels did not check for zero in the irq_state.flags field and old QEMUs did not zero the flag/reserved fields when calling KVM_S390_*_IRQ_STATE. Let's add comments to prevent future uses of these fields.
