be identical. This allows large pages in the guest to be backed by large
pages in the host.
-The flags field supports two flag, KVM_MEM_LOG_DIRTY_PAGES, which
-instructs kvm to keep track of writes to memory within the slot. See
-the KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl. Another flag is KVM_MEM_READONLY when the
-KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM capability, it indicates the guest memory is read-only,
-that means, guest is only allowed to read it. Writes will be posted to
-userspace as KVM_EXIT_MMIO exits.
-
-When the KVM_CAP_SYNC_MMU capability, changes in the backing of the memory
-region are automatically reflected into the guest. For example, an mmap()
-that affects the region will be made visible immediately. Another example
-is madvise(MADV_DROP).

It is recommended to use this API instead of the KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION ioctl.
The KVM_SET_MEMORY_REGION does not allow fine grained control over memory
