[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v1 1/1] vmstate: fix failed iotests case 68 and 91

[QingFeng Hao <haoqf@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

This problem affects s390x only if we are running without KVM.
Basically, S390CPU.irqstate is unused if we do not use KVM,
and thus no buffer is allocated.
This causes size=0, first_elem=NULL and n_elems=1 in
vmstate_load_state and vmstate_save_state. And the assert fails.
With this fix we can go back to the old behavior and support
VMS_VBUFFER with size 0 and nullptr.
