I've just tried, idea to check limit is unusable in this case.
here is a link to a patch that implements it:
https://github.com/imammedo/qemu/commits/vhost_slot_limit_check

slots count is changing dynamically depending on used devices
and more importantly guest OS could change slots count during
its runtime when during managing devices it could trigger
repartitioning of current memory table as device's memory regions
mapped into address space.

That leads to 2 different values of used slots at guest startup
time and after guest booted or after hotplug.

I my case guest could be started with max 58 DIMMs coldplugged,
but after boot 3 more slots are freed and it's possible to hotadd
3 more DIMMs. That however leads to the guest that can't be migrated
to since by QEMU design all hotplugged devices should be present
at target's startup time i.e. 60 DIMMs total and that obviously
goes above vhost limit

OK.
Do you want to try now before I do v2?

this header will be synced into QEMU's tree so that we could use this define 
there,
isn't it? IMHO then _LEGACY is more exact description of macro.

As for 0 return value, -1 is just fine for detecting old kernels (i.e. try and 
see if it works), so 0 looks unnecessary but it doesn't in any way hurt either.
For me limit or -1 is enough to try fix userspace.

The assumption was that userspace detecting old kernels will just use 64,
this means we do want a flag to get the old way.

OTOH if you won't think it's useful, let me know.

is it needed? we always have a limit,
or don't have IOCTL => -1 => old try and see way

if it's for legacy then perhaps s/DEFAULT/LEGACY/
