Subject: KVM: VMX: introduce alloc_loaded_vmcs
From: Paolo Bonzini pbonzini@redhat.com
Date: Thu Jan 11 12:16:15 2018 +0100

From: Paolo Bonzini pbonzini@redhat.com

commit f21f165ef922c2146cc5bdc620f542953c41714b

Group together the calls to alloc_vmcs and loaded_vmcs_init.  Soon we'll also
allocate an MSR bitmap there.
