ivshmem.o should only be linked when CONFIG_EVENTFD is set. pci.mak has
CONFIG_IVSHMEM=$(CONFIG_EVENTFD)
The compile error shown above indicates CONFIG_EVENTFD=y for make (since
ivshmem.o gets linked), but !defined(CONFIG_EVENTFD) for C (or else
event_notifier_init_fd() would exist). Your build tree is messed up, or
the makefiles are broken. Try starting over with a fresh build tree.
