Sorry the fixup was not attached (and it is different from the first one)
I have sent the fixup by this way as the issue appears only on your
tree on the branch for_thibaut. This fixup is mainly just for you to
update the for_thibaut branch.
With the rebase of a patch from live migration series the function
vhost_kernel_get_vq_index appears twice in the file
hw/virtio/vhost-backend.c

I am testing the head of the for_thibaut branch

I do not see yet my patch on the for_thibaut branch
