Yes, I misremembered (I have this patch for a long time, since 4.11 at last,
maybe even older).
Anyway the build fails with:
netbsd.c: In function 'xenevtchn_pending':
netbsd.c:134:10: error: implicit declaration of function 'read_exact'; did you 
mean 'readlinkat'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

The only header where I see this function defined is
tools/libs/ctrl/xc_private.h, so I would need something like
#include "../../ctrl/xc_private.h"
but this doesn't look right.

I didn't find where other OSes are getting the prototype from (or maybe
they just have this -Werror turned off ?)

Anyway I think NetBSD doesn't need this read_exact/write_exact thing,
the underlying pseudo-device won't to partial read/write.
