Then the libvhost-user sources are used by another project, it can not
be guaranteed that _GNU_SOURCE is set by the build system. If it is for
example not set, errors like this show up.
CC libvhost-user.o
libvhost-user.c: In function ‘vu_panic’:
libvhost-user.c:195:9: error: implicit declaration of function ‘vasprintf’; did
you mean ‘vsprintf’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
195 | if (vasprintf(&buf, msg, ap) < 0) {
| ^~~~~~~~~
| vsprintf
The simplest way to allow external complication of libvhost-user.[ch] is
by setting _GNU_SOURCE if it is not already set by the build system.
