[PATCH 32/60] kvm: Allocate struct kvm_run only for struct kvm_vcpu_common

From: Jörg Rödel <joro@8bytes.org>
Date: 2026-06-08 14:43:21
Also in: kvm, kvm-riscv, kvmarm, linux-mips, lkml, loongarch
Subsystem: kernel virtual machine (kvm), the rest · Maintainers: Paolo Bonzini, Linus Torvalds

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Share the struct kvm_run across all planes for one VCPU id.
