[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.0?] target-i386: fix gdb debugging with large memory guests |

If you start a Linux guest with more than 4GB of memory and try to look at a
memory address, you will get an error from gdb:
(gdb) p node_data[0]->node_id
Cannot access memory at address 0xffff88013fffd3a0
(gdb)
I debugged this down to x86_cpu_get_phys_page_debug(), it doesn't handle the
case where the PDPTE has the PS bit set (although I didn't check where Linux
sets that bit). This commit adds the PS bit handling, which fixes the problem
for me.

Two observations:
1. This bug has always existed, so it's not a regression, so I'm not sure
it's worth it to fix for 2.0
2. I'm not familiar with every detail of x86_cpu_get_phys_page_debug(),
so I'm not completely sure this is the right thing to do
