Title:
  [SRU] virtualbox-guest-dkms 4.3.10-dfsg-1: virtualbox-guest kernel
  module failed to build [error: 'generic_file_aio_read' undeclared here
  (not in a function)]

Status in virtualbox package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in virtualbox source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * User can't install and build virtualbox-guest-dkms kernel module

  [Test Case]

  * Install it. Ensure that it installs with a 3.16 and 3.13 kernel.

  [Regression Potential]

   * None (this needs to be done almost at each kernel release)
   * Upstream "ifdefs" the new code, so there is no regression.

  [Other Info]

  After updates installed I got this error
