Takuya Yoshikawa 7a905b1485 KVM: Remove user_alloc from struct kvm_memory_slot This field was needed to differentiate memory slots created by the new API, KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION, from those by the old equivalent, KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION, whose support was dropped long before: commit `b74a07beed` KVM: Remove kernel-allocated memory regions Although we also have private memory slots to which KVM allocates memory with vm_mmap(), !user_alloc slots in other words, the slot id should be enough for differentiating them. Note: corresponding function parameters will be removed later.

Takuya Yoshikawa 7a905b1485 KVM: Remove user_alloc from struct kvm_memory_slot

This field was needed to differentiate memory slots created by the new
API, KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION, from those by the old equivalent,
KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION, whose support was dropped long before:

  commit b74a07beed
  KVM: Remove kernel-allocated memory regions

Although we also have private memory slots to which KVM allocates
memory with vm_mmap(), !user_alloc slots in other words, the slot id
should be enough for differentiating them.

Note: corresponding function parameters will be removed later.
