Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2019-03-20 23:22:53 UTC
Patches still aren't upstream yet. This doesn't seem to be that high priority and even when they land they touch a ton of files which makes me weary of backporting them.

So I'm closing this for fedora. We will get the fix whenever the patches hit a qemu release
