hi ,

I used libvirt upstream code version v7.3.0-135-gc6989ed929 and applied the
patch. It failed to compile the code with below errors,  can you please
check them?

../src/conf/domain_conf.c: In function ‘virDomainIOMMUDefCheckABIStability’:
../src/conf/domain_conf.c:22064:12: error: ‘virDomainIOMMUDef’ {aka ‘struct
_virDomainIOMMUDef’} has no member named ‘mem’
