From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonz...@redhat.com> This is legal; the MemoryRegion will simply unreference all the existing subregions and possibly bring them down with it as well. However, it requires a bit of care to avoid an infinite loop. Finalizing a memory region cannot trigger an address space update, but memory_region_del_subregion errs on the side of caution and might trigger a spurious update: avoid that by resetting mr->enabled first.
