The kernel KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG interface has align requirement on both the start and the size of the given range of pages. We have been careful to handle the unaligned cases when performing CLEAR on one slot. But it seems that we forget to take the unaligned *size* case into account when preparing bitmap for the interface, and we may end up clearing dirty status for pages outside of [start, start + size). If the size is unaligned, let's go through the slow path to manipulate a temp bitmap for the interface so that we won't bother with those unaligned bits at the end of bitmap. I don't think this can happen in practice since the upper layer would provide us with the alignment guarantee. I'm not sure if kvm-all could rely on it. And this patch is mainly intended to address correctness of the specific algorithm used inside kvm_log_clear_one_slot().
