this effects our vncproxy. dominik and me tested if the issue is present
on our branch and it appears that it is.
in essence when we disconnect from a vnc connection, the memory isn't
free'd afterwards which causes the qemu process to use more and more
memory with each disconnect, which could lead to a dos scenario.
we tested the patch and it seems to mitigate the problem.
