Hi, Jes
Currently, we only supports up to 8 vcpus, and to be safe, I set
the limit to 4 (Defined in include/asm/kvm_host.h). Maybe you can
increase the macro KVM_MAX_VCPUS to have a try. In order to support >8
vcpus, we can decrease the size of vtlb and vhpt, also defined in
include/asm/kvm_host.h. Thanks! :0
