[PATCH] KVM: fix async page fault working for readonly mapping

From: Xiao Guangrong
Date: Mon May 21 2012 - 02:53:06 EST


If we map a readonly memory space from host to guest and the page is
not currently mapped in the host, we will get a fault-pfn and async
is not allowed, then the vm will crash

The reason is only writable vma can be allowed to be async in current
code
