Hello,

I would like to request the backport of the following commit from QEMU
upstream:

commit 3cad83075c7b847fe0eb6e61316fdf50984d4570
Author: Roger Pau Monne <roger.pau@citrix.com>
Date:   Tue Oct 21 16:03:03 2014 +0200
block: char devices on FreeBSD are not behind a pager

I'm requesting this to be backported with the basis that the commit is a
bugfix that only affects FreeBSD.

Thanks, Roger.

I don't understand why all the other boolean flags in BDRVRawState only
use 1 bit while needs_alignment uses 1 byte. However it's not an issue
of course.

The patch is uncontroversial and it easy to backport. I am OK with
it.

Konrad, what do you think?

The maintainer had a preference for doing it this way:
