[PATCH 3/4] KVM: arm64: Move the private VA allocation cursor to __io_map_next

Tue Sep 8 04:07:12 PDT 2026


__io_map_base is the start of the private VA range only until the first
allocation from it, after which it is the allocation cursor. Keep it as
the start and move the cursor to __io_map_next, for the walk of the
range the next patch adds.

No functional change intended.
