In the best case, it's an expensive NOP. In the worst case, it's an unexpected allocation error. Instead, "prealloc=on" should be specified for the virtio-mem device only, such that virtio-mem will try preallocating memory before plugging memory dynamically to the guest. Fail if such a memory backend is provided.
