Please spend some time looking into the issue and add te proper __padded annotations, we've done that elsewhere in the kernel and it isn't too bad - in fact it helps understanding issues with implicit alignment. And even if you have a good reason not to fix vhost (which I think you don't have) this changelog is just utter crap, as it fails to mention what t...
