Subject: [PATCH v6 08/14] KVM: s390: Move common code of mem_op functions into functions

The vcpu and vm mem_op ioctl implementations share some functionality.
Move argument checking and buffer allocation into functions and call
them from both implementations.
This allows code reuse in case of additional future mem_op operations.

You likely can now remove the "= NULL" here, I guess?

... and here, too.

But I have to admit that I'm also not sure whether I like the
mem_op_alloc_buf() part or not (the mem_op_validate_common() part looks fine
to me) : mem_op_alloc_buf() is a new function with 11 lines of code, and the
old spots that allocate memory were only 5 lines of code each, so you now
increased the LoC count and additionally have to fiddly with IS_ERR and
PTR_ERR which is always a little bit ugly in my eyes ... IMHO I'd rather
keep the old code here. But that's just my 0.02 €, if you think it's nicer
with mem_op_alloc_buf(), I won't insist on keeping the old code.

I've done a PoC that has a **buff argument and combines the check with
the alloc.

@Nina: Any reason why this was split up?

I just didn't like that much because it felt like an unspecific memop_do_things function.

Yeah, I thought about it, but wasn't sure if I like moving the line down because of
some people's insistence on reverse christmas tree.
It's entirely arbitrary in a different way, but I like the return value being the last
thing declared.
In the end I forgot to make a decision on it.

Yeah, that's fair.
