The kvm structure is pretty large. A large portion of it is the vcpu array, which is 4kB on x86_64 and arm64 as they deal with 512 vcpu VMs. Of course, hardly anyone runs VMs this big, so this is often a net waste of memory and cache locality. A possible approach is to turn the fixed-size array into an xarray, which results in a net code deletion after a bit of cleanup. This series is on top of the current linux/master as it touches the RISC-V implementation. Only tested on arm64.
