KVM: MMU: handle n_free_mmu_pages > n_alloc_mmu_pages in kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages
kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages mishandles the case where n_alloc_mmu_pages is smaller then n_free_mmu_pages, by not checking if the result of the subtraction is negative. Its a valid condition which can happen if a large number of pages has been recently freed. Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
