Sorry, I lost the original message somehow, so I can't reply to it.  I
applied this by hand to my for-linus branch for v4.2, thanks!


commit c9ddbac9c89110f77cb0fa07e634aaf1194899aa
Author: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
Date:   Tue Jul 14 18:27:46 2015 -0500

    PCI: Restore PCI_MSIX_FLAGS_BIRMASK definition
    
    09a2c73ddfc7 ("PCI: Remove unused PCI_MSIX_FLAGS_BIRMASK definition")
    removed PCI_MSIX_FLAGS_BIRMASK from an exported header because it was
    unused in the kernel.  But that breaks user programs that were using it
    (QEMU in particular).
    
    Restore the PCI_MSIX_FLAGS_BIRMASK definition.

Did you mean 4.2? time's running out on this one ...
Just making sure - it's still not upstream, right?

It's on my for-linus branch and it's been in -next for a couple weeks.
We're at -rc4, and I will send a pull request to Linus before v4.2
releases.  This is a really minor fix, so I'm holding it in case there
are other fixes that I can include in the same request.
