I'm trying to compile the dpdk on an debian-7, and it fails due
to this patch. Indeed, the define VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE is
not present in /usr/include/linux/virtio_net.h on this distribution.

It will be fixed by this patch:
http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/11195/

I'm wondering if the librte_vhost shouldn't embed its own version
of virtio_net.h instead of relying on the one from the distribution.
It seems it has been done this way for the virtio guest PMD in
dpdk.org/drivers/net/virtio/virtio_pci.h.

What do you think?
