[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 5/5] linux-user: Fix h2g usage in page_find_alloc

[Jan Kiszka]

Paul's comment on my first approach to fix the h2g usage in
page_find_alloc finally open my eyes about what the code is actually
supposed to do:

With the help of h2g_valid we can no cleanly check if a freshly allocate
page (for host usage) is guest-reachable and, in case it is, mark it
reserved in the guest's address range.
