Hi; Coverity points out a problem with this code (CID 1490787):

Because dirty_ring_size and TARGET_PAGE_SIZE are both 32 bits,
this multiplication will be done as a 32-bit operation,
which could overflow. You should cast one of the operands
to uint64_t to ensure that the operation is done as a 64 bit
multiplication.
Side note: typo in the variable name: should be 'memory'.
