The problem is with s390 which > puts this DEFINE_VIRTIO_COMMON_FEATURES in all devices. All save virtio-blk. There were some problems when switching on event_idx on virtio-blk, IIRC. The other transport add DEFINE_VIRTIO_COMMON FEATURES in their base class. Because of the not-quite-understood problem with virtio-blk, we couldn't do that with s390-virtio.
