[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 7/7] exec: reduce L2_PAGE_SIZE

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

With the single exception of ppc with 16M pages,
we get the same number of levels
with L2_PAGE_SIZE = 10 as with L2_PAGE_SIZE = 9.

by doing this we reduce memory footprint of a single level
in the node memory map by 2x without runtime overhead.
