[Qemu-devel] [PULL 15/17] arm: enhance kvm_arm_create_scratch_host_vcpu


From: Peter Maydell
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PULL 15/17] arm: enhance kvm_arm_create_scratch_host_vcpu
Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2016 15:57:47 +0100

From: Peter Xu <address@hidden>

Support passing NULL for the first parameter (with the same effect
as passing an empty array) and for the third parameter (meaning
that we should not attempt to init the vcpu).
