Add a new Linux-specific memory backend, similar to hostmem-file,
except that it doesn't need file path. It also try to enforce memory
sealing if available. It is thus slightly easier and secure, and is
compatible with transparent huge-pages since Linux 4.8.

The first 6 patches are mostly cleanups and could be considered
regardless of memfd hostmem acceptability.

v3:
- make vhost-user-test use memfd only if possible
- rebased

v1->v2:
- make it linux-specific
- minor changes and commit message tweaks

Marc-André Lureau (9):
  exec: check kvm mmu notifiers earlier
  exec: split file_ram_alloc()
  exec: split qemu_ram_alloc_from_file()
  Add memory_region_init_ram_from_fd()
  ivshmem: use ram_from_fd()
  memory: remove memory_region_set_fd
  memfd: split qemu_memfd_alloc()
  Add memfd based hostmem
  tests: use memfd in vhost-user-test
