    kvm: fix incorrect length in a loop over kvm dirty pages map · 752ced04

    QEMU allocates a map enough for 4k pages. However the system page size
    can be 64K (for example on POWER) and the host kernel uses only a small
    part of it as one big stores a dirty flag for 16 pages 4K each,
    the hpratio variable stores this ratio and
    the kvm_get_dirty_pages_log_range function handles it correctly.
    
    However kvm_get_dirty_pages_log_range still goes beyond the data
    provided by the host kernel which is not correct. It does not cause
    errors at the moment as the whole bitmap is zeroed before doing KVM ioctl.
    
    The patch reduces number of iterations over the map.
