Subject: kvm: don't try to register to KVM_FAST_MMIO_BUS for non mmio eventfd
From: Jason Wang <[email protected]>
commit 8453fecbecae26edb3f278627376caab05d9a88d upstream.
We only want zero length mmio eventfd to be registered on KVM_FAST_MMIO_BUS. So check this explicitly when arg->len is zero to make sure this.
