Newly added code
+	kvm_for_each_memslot(memslot, slots)
+		kvm_free_memslot(kvm, memslot, NULL);
does nothing in effect, but looks better to be here since this
corresponds to kvm_alloc_memslots() part and may be safer for
future changes.

Other changes look like trivial transitions to the new
kvm_alloc/free_memslots.
