[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH 1/1] linux-user: Probe the guest base for shared objects when needed

[Meador Inge]

In some cases when running a shared library directly from QEMU
(e.g. ld.so) the guest base should still be probed so that
any images loaded later at fixed addresses by the target code
can still be mapped.
