0b21757124d200ff86100a3bc7bb5f81521b42c4 numa: set the memory backend "is_mapped" field
Commit 2aece63 "hostmem: detect host backend memory is being used properly"
added a way to know if a memory backend is busy or available for use. It
caused a slight regression if we pass the same backend to a NUMA node and
to a pc-dimm device:
-m 1G,slots=2,maxmem=2G \
-object memory-backend-ram,size=1G,id=mem-mem1 \
-device pc-dimm,id=dimm-mem1,memdev=mem-mem1 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=mem-mem1
Before commit 2aece63, this would cause QEMU to print an error message and
to exit gracefully:
qemu-system-ppc64: -device pc-dimm,id=dimm-mem1,memdev=mem-mem1:
can't use already busy memdev: mem-mem1
Since commit 2aece63, QEMU hits an assertion in the memory code:
qemu-system-ppc64: memory.c:1934: memory_region_add_subregion_common:
Assertion `!subregion->container' failed.
Aborted
This happens because pc-dimm devices don't use memory_region_is_mapped()
anymore and cannot guess the backend is already used by a NUMA node.
Let's revert to the previous behavior by turning the NUMA code to also
call host_memory_backend_set_mapped() when it uses a backend.
