[pve-devel] [PATCH manager 6/7] report: add info about (un)used memory slots

[Aaron Lauterer]

I am not sure how often we actually need that information as it can add 
quite a bit of additional lines in the report in larger machines with 
many memory slots.

It might be better to keep that command in a cheatsheet to ask for it if 
actually needed instead of polluting the report :)
