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_ram_mmap(fd, size, MAP_SHARED, offset);

Signoff?

+ram_addr_t qemu_ram_mmap(int fd, ram_addr_t size, int flags, off_t offset)
+{
+    RAMBlock *new_block;
+
+    size = TARGET_PAGE_ALIGN(size);
+    new_block = qemu_malloc(sizeof(*new_block));
+
+    /* map the file passed as a parameter to be this part of memory */
+    new_block->host = mmap(0, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, flags, fd, offset);
+
+    if (new_block->host == MAP_FAILED)
+        exit(1);

Braces after if ()

+    if (kvm_enabled())
+        kvm_setup_guest_memory(new_block->host, size);
+

More braces.
