[Qemu-devel] [BUG] qemu-kvm: memory_region_add_subregion_common: Assertion `!subregion->parent' failed.

[Lai Jiangshan]

This bug is triggered for my Windows XP guest, but not for my linux guests.

The gdb result shows that a "vga.vram" memoryregion is added twice.

    vga: convert vga and its derivatives to the memory API
    
    Convert all vga memory to the memory API.  Note we need to fall back to
    get_system_memory(), since the various buses don't pass the vga window
    as a memory region.
    
    We no longer need to sync the dirty bitmap of the cirrus mapped memory
    banks, since the memory API takes care of that for us.
