From b7f69c555ca430129b6cde81e9f0927531420c5c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Williamson Date: Mon, 10 Dec 2012 10:33:03 -0700 Subject: KVM: Minor memory slot optimization If a slot is removed or moved in the guest physical address space, we first allocate and install a new slot array with the invalidated entry. The old array is then freed. We then proceed to allocate yet another slot array to install the permanent replacement. Re-use the original array when this occurs and avoid the extra kfree/kmalloc.
