[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] Support adding a file to qemu's ram allocation |

This avoids the need of using qemu_ram_alloc and mmap with MAP_FIXED to map a
host file into guest RAM. This function mmaps the opened file anywhere and
adds the memory to the ram blocks.
Usage is
qemu_add_file_to_ram(fd, size, MAP_SHARED);
