[PATCH v3 6/6] KVM: introduce readonly memslot

From: Xiao Guangrong
Date: Mon Jun 11 2012 - 22:49:37 EST


In current code, if we map a readonly memory space from host to guest
and the page is not currently mapped in the host, we will get a fault-pfn
and async is not allowed, then the vm will crash

Address Avi's idea, we introduce readonly memory region to map ROM/ROMD
to the guest
