I think that this patch is based on unmerged patch, since I don't see
any memory allocation in nested_svm_vmrun_msrpm, nor out_free label.
in nether kvm/master, kvm/queue nor in upstream/master

If I recall correctly that would be something about allocating ctrl/save
dynamically rather than on stack.
