This causes Qemu's new postcopy migration feature to fail on s390 because its first action is to madvise the guest address space as NOHUGEPAGE. This patch modifies the code so that the operation succeeds without error now. For consistency reasons do the same for MADV_HUGEPAGE. Signed-off-by: Jason J.
