KVM: remove dummy pages
Currently, kvm allocates some pages and use them as error indicators, it wastes memory and is not good for scalability Base on Avi's suggestion, we use the error codes instead of these pages to indicate the error conditions Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
