[patch 20/48] KVM: MMU: increase per-vcpu rmap cache alloc size

[Greg KH]

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@xxxxxxxxxx>

(cherry picked from commit c41ef344de212bd918f7765af21b5008628c03e0)

The page fault path can use two rmap_desc structures, if:

- walk_addr's dirty pte update allocates one rmap_desc.
- mmu_lock is dropped, sptes are zapped resulting in rmap_desc being
  freed.
- fetch->mmu_set_spte allocates another rmap_desc.

Increase to 4 for safety.
