During RH6.2 graphical installation the following oops is triggered:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000

The problem is that KVM allows shadow pagetable entries that
point to a removed memslot to exist. In this case the cirrus vram
mapping was removed, and the NULL dereference happened during
kvm_set_memory_alias()'s zap_all_pages().
Since a malicious guest could have a thread's root table inside the
to-be-removed memslot, also guarantee there this is not the case before
removal.
This behaviour will also be useful for memory hotplugging.
As a side note, RH 6.2 graphical installation still won't function (due
to cirrus emulation bugs).
