[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] pc: memory: Validate alignment of maxram_size to page size

[Peter Krempa]

If the maxram_size is not aligned and dimm devices were added on the
command line qemu would terminate with a rather unhelpful message:

ERROR:hw/mem/pc-dimm.c:150:pc_dimm_get_free_addr: assertion failed:
(QEMU_ALIGN_UP(address_space_size, align) == address_space_size)

In case no dimm device was originally added on the commandline qemu
exits on the assertion failure.
