Unfortunately I didn't notice before applying the pull, but this
is breaking 'make check' on AArch64 host for me:

TEST: tests/vhost-user-test... (pid=20205)
Warning: path not on HugeTLBFS: /tmp/vhost-test-gRpbwl
qemu-system-i386: -netdev vhost-user,id=net0,chardev=chr0,vhostforce:
vhost-net support is not compiled in
qemu-system-i386: -netdev vhost-user,id=net0,chardev=chr0,vhostforce:
failed to init vhost_net for queue 0

Broken pipe
FAIL: tests/vhost-user-test

Probably reproducible on x86 if you configure with --disable-vhost-net,
though I haven't tried that.

Perhaps tests/vhost-user-test should be set up
in tests/Makefile using
check-qtest-i386-$(CONFIG_VHOST_USER) rather
than CONFIG_LINUX ?

I'd appreciate a quick fix, because this machine is in my set
of systems I test all pullreqs on now...

thanks
