Currently qemu/kvm on s390 uses a guest mapping that does not allow the guest backing page table to be write-protected to support older systems. On those older systems a host write protection fault will be delivered to the guest. Newer systems allow to write-protect the guest backing memory and let the fault be delivered to the host, thus allowing COW. Use a capability bit to tell qemu if that is possible.
