[PATCH] lguest: properly kill guest userspace programs accessingkernel mem

[Rusty Russell]

Kernel pages on x86 are protected by not having the _PAGE_USER bit
set.  When guest userspace accesses a kernel page, we didn't check
this, so we'd think we'd handled the fault and return to the guest,
causing the guest userspace program to loop instead of segfaulting.
