Subject: [PATCH net-next] ibmvnic: workaround QT Creator/libCPlusPlus
 segfault 

My name is Alexey and I've tried to use IDE for kernel development.

QT Creator segfaults while parsing ibmvnic.c which is annoying as it
will start parsing after restart only to crash again.

The workaround is to either exclude ibmvnic.c from list of project files
or to apply dummy ifdef to hide the offending code.
