[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/2] exec: Fix bounce buffer allocation in address_space_map()

[Kevin Wolf]

This fixes a regression introduced by commit e3127ae0c, which kept the
allocation size of the bounce buffer limited to one page in order to
avoid unbounded allocations (as explained in the commit message of
6d16c2f88), but broke the reporting of the shortened bounce buffer to
the caller. The caller therefore assumes that the full requested size
was provided and causes memory corruption when writing beyond the end of
the actually allocated buffer.
