Hi,
This series allows QEMU to use vhost with legacy virtio devices when
host and target don't have the same endianness. Only network devices
are covered for the moment.
I had already posted a series some monthes ago but it never got reviewed.
Moreover, the underlying kernel support was entirely re-written and is still
waiting to be applied by Michael. I hence post as RFC.
The corresponding kernel patches are available here:

Please comment.

Cédric Le Goater (1):
vhost_net: re-enable when cross endian
Greg Kurz (6):
virtio: relax feature check
linux-headers: sync vhost.h
virtio: introduce virtio_legacy_is_cross_endian()
vhost: set vring endianness for legacy virtio
tap: add VNET_LE/VNET_BE operations
vhost-net: tell tap backend about the vnet endianness
