Same comment about handling NULL as before.

In addition what if only one of meminfo and distance is NULL? Is that
valid or do you need a !!meminfo ^ !!distance check?
I want to treat this as as an error here, which is why I have
          } else if (meminfo || distance) {
              errno = EINVAL;
              return -1;
          }

because the hypervisor will only attempt to copy numainfo things when
both are valid. Otherwise (i.e. even if only one is a NULL) it will
assume that this is a request for size. The alternative would be to add
another error there, which I decided not to do.
Sorry, I'd trimmed that bit before I thought of the issue. Yes, what you
had was right (although in general it is nicer to test for parameter
validity first).

I'll flip the test order.
