Subject: [PATCH] hostmem: Apply merge property after the memory region is
initialized
RH-Author: Gavin Shan <gshan@redhat.com>
RH-MergeRequest: 272: hostmem: Apply merge property after the memory region is initialized

RH-Commit: [1/1] aa47bedf64698b277bb8835f4689d4f1d5eca53c (gwshan/qemu-centos)
JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-58936
The semantic change has been introduced by commit 5becdc0ab0 ("hostmem:
simplify the code for merge and dump properties") even it clarifies that
no senmatic change has been introduced. After the commit, the merge
property can be applied even the corresponding memory region isn't
initialized yet. This leads to crash dump by the following command
lines.
# /home/gavin/sandbox/qemu.main/build/qemu-system-aarch64 \
-accel kvm -machine virt -cpu host \
-object memory-backend-ram,id=mem-memN0,size=4096M,merge=off
:
qemu-system-aarch64: ../system/memory.c:2419: memory_region_get_ram_ptr: \
Assertion `mr->ram_block' failed.
Fix it by applying the merge property only when the memory region is
initialized.
