[PATCH 3/3] vhost: make default mapping empty by default

From: Michael S. Tsirkin
Date: Sun Dec 20 2009 - 12:19:39 EST


vhost now validates each region with access_ok in calling process
context before access. Since this fails on a full 64 bit 1:1 mapping
that vhost had by default, we can't support such a mapping: users will
have to set up a table with real addresses that actually matches their
address space.
Make the default mapping empty.
