Subject: [PATCH 0/2] vhot-net: Use kvm_memslots instead of vhost_memory to
 translate GPA to HVA

From: Hongyong Zang <zanghongyong@...wei.com>

Vhost-net uses its own vhost_memory, which results from user space (qemu) info,
to translate GPA to HVA. Since kernel's kvm structure already maintains the 
address relationship in its member *kvm_memslots*, these patches use kernel's 
kvm_memslots directly without the need of initialization and maintenance of 
vhost_memory.

Hongyong Zang (2):
  kvm: Introduce get_kvm_from_task
  vhost-net: Use kvm_memslots for address translation
