I don't think that it's urgently necessary, but ok, if you all prefer to
have it, too, I can add it to my patch.

Hmm, we already talked about deprecating support for pre-3.15 kernel
stuff in the past (see
https://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/2.12#Future_incompatible_changes for
example), since this has been broken in QEMU since quite a while, but
the new KVM_S390_IRQ replacement has just been introduced with kernel
4.1 ... so removing this KVM_S390_INTERRUPT ioctl any time soon sounds
wrong to me, we might break some userspace programs that are still there
in the wild...
