From: Xiantao Zhang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2008 14:46:02 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] kvm: Let ioctl_get_regs suppot input pararmeters.
Since kvm_regs is allocated from kernel stack, and
its size is limited. In order to save large register
files of some archs, this API should accept input parameters.
User need to pass a user-space pointer with large memory, and
kernel can copy reigster files to it.
