The xen_[rw]?mb() macros defined in ring.h can't be used and the fact
that there are gated behind __XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__ means that it
needs to be defined somewhere. QEMU doesn't implement interfaces with
the Xen hypervisor so defining __XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__ is pointless.
This leads to:
include/hw/xen/io/ring.h:47:5: error: "__XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION__"
is not defined, evaluates to 0 [-Werror=undef]
Cleanup ring.h. The xen_*mb() macros are already defined in xenctrl.h
which is included in xen_common.h.

That patch has an additional hunk:
@@ -33,6 +33,13 @@
* - standard integers types (uint8_t, uint16_t, etc)
* They are provided by stdint.h of the standard headers.
*
+ * Before using the different macros, you need to provide the following
+ * macros:
+ * - xen_mb() a memory barrier
+ * - xen_rmb() a read memory barrier
+ * - xen_wmb() a write memory barrier
+ * Example of those can be found in xenctrl.h.
+ *
* In addition, if you intend to use the FLEX macros, you also need to
* provide the following, before invoking the FLEX macros:
* - size_t
Suggest to include it in this patch, because (1) it's useful (I think),
and (2) it reduces differences to upstream Xen's version.
