From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit dfdc0a714d241bfbf951886c373cd1ae463fcc25 upstream. Commit c9b8b07cded58 (KVM: x86: Dynamically allocate per-vCPU emulation context) tries to allocate per-vCPU emulation context dynamically, however, the x86_emulator slab cache is still exiting after the kvm module is unload as below after destroying the VM and unloading the kvm module. grep x86_emulator /proc/slabinfo x86_emulator 36 36 2672 12 8 : tunables 0 0 0 : slabdata 3 3 0 This patch fixes this slab cache leak by destroying the x86_emulator slab cache when the kvm module is unloaded.
