Subject: [PATCH 2/5] KVM: MMU: use 16 bits for root_count
Date: Mon, 26 Apr 2010 11:48:40 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1272271723-9070-3-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1272271723-9070-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com>

This is incremented by a maximum of 4 for every vcpu, so we are far from
overflow.  16 bits improve struct packing.
