Initialize the "new" memslot in the !DELETE path only after the various sanity checks have passed. This will allow a future commit to allocate @new dynamically without having to copy a memslot, and without having to deal with freeing @new in error paths and in the "nothing to change" path that's hiding in the sanity checks. No functional change intended. Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Reviewed-by: Maciej S. Szmigiero <maciej.szmigiero@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Maciej S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
