You don't need that call. It's related to real device passthrough (e.g.,
Intel VT-d).

Mmm not really. Actually I'm surprised it built at all without further
changes to the source code.
Perhaps you'd be better cherry-picking 3.2.x patches to backport to the
3.1.x qemu. Changesets 15639 and 15641 would be obvious candidates.
