[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen-mapcache: Fix rlimit set size.



Previously, the address space soft limit was set mcache_max_size. So,
before the mcache_max_size was reached by the mapcache, QEMU was killed
for overuse of the virtual address space.

This patch fix that by setting the soft limit to mcache_max_size + 80MB.
I observed that QEMU use 75MB more than max_mcache_size after several
empirical tests.
