Considering we really can't reasonably validate IPA overlapping with
guest memory (how is the host to know what is 'guest memory'), I'm not
convinced it's worth the code to detect overlapping vcpus. Nothing bad
will happen to the host in this case (the kvm_put_guest() calls will
just clobber each other).
In terms of checking the IPA is valid - again this is something that can
change in the lifetime of the VM, so the check at setup time isn't
particularly useful. Currently it's also possible to create the vcpus
(including setting up the stolen time) before the memory is assigned to
the guest as long as the vcpus are not started. This seems like a useful
level of flexibility.

Yes it should be possible to add it - I'd like to wait to see whether
user actually want to use multiple memslots though - it's quite possible
to use a single memslot for both guest memory and stolen time structures.

Yes that does look weird. I'll drop the "SET_" part from the symbol. I'm
not sure what I was thinking when I named that.
