But instead of > just deleting it, maybe we could move 'bool load_eoi_exitmap_pending' to > its place, so 7 bytes can be saved for each struct kvm_vcpu_arch: I prefer leaving load_eoi_exitmap_pending where it is so that it's co-located with ioapic_handled_vectors. I agree wasting 7 bytes is unfortunate, but I don't want to take an ad hoc approach to shrinking per-vCPU structs.
