Hello people!

I'm not able to boot any guest that sets a virtio block device like:
(branch master)

[PPC64]
qemu-system-ppc64 -cpu POWER8 -nographic -vga none -m 4G -M 
pseries,accel=kvm,kvm-type=PR -drive file=disk.qcow2,if=virtio

[1]    5282 abort

[Cause]

The commit 4fe6d78b2e introduces the

...
kvm_mem_ioeventfd_del(...) {
    ...
    r = kvm_set_ioeventfd_mmio(fd, ...
    if (r < 0) {
        abort();
    }

+    if (e->cleanup) {
+        e->cleanup(e);
+    }
}

For some reason, not yet clear to me, cleanup() calls the same
kvm_mem_ioeventfd_del again and again until kvm_set_ioeventfd_mmio
returns < 0 and abort().

I was going to send a patch to revert that 'if ()' but I think it could
cause a regression. What do you guys think?

Thanks,

Jose Ricardo Ziviani
