The empty\nFV is used every time when a root MR would render into a FV without\nmemory sections, which happens when MR or its children are not enabled\n(or zero-sized, which isn't caught yet). The empty_view is not NULL to\nkeep the rest of memory API intact; it also has a dispatch tree for the\nsame reason.\n\nOn POWER8 with 255 CPUs, 255 virtio-net, 40 PCI bridges guest this halves\nthe amount of FlatView's in use (557 -> 260) and dispatch tables\n(~800000 -> ~370000).  In an unrelated experiment with 112 non-virtio\ndevices on x86 (\"-M pc\"), only 4 FlatViews are alive while the guest runs.\n\nSigned-off-by: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru>\nMessage-Id: <20170921085110.25598-16-aik@ozlabs.ru>\nSigned-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>\n---\n memory.c | 18 ++++++++++++++++--\n 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)",
