Hi Siddharth,

thanks for the patch. Can you resend it inlined into the e-mail instead
of an attachment? I usually use git send-email for that.
My workflow (once you have configured git send-email) would be:

- git format-patch -1
- git send-email --to="qemu-devel@nongnu.org"
--cc="qemu-trivial@nongnu.org" *.patch

Also there is a page on the wiki on how to submit a patch [1]. If you
want to avoid a lot of re-sending you might want to look into it :).

Cheers,
Bastian

Hi Siddharth,

because you are touching possibly "hot" code paths, it is not possible
to just move the allocation to the heap.  You will have to check whether
the number of used items is low enough and, if not, switch from the
stack-allocated array to the heap.  This way the stack-allocated array
can be made smaller (e.g. 2K).

Thanks,

Paolo

Also, there's a typo in your subject line (should be 'bitesized', not
'bitssized'). And don't forget to add your Signed-off-by.
