I have gone ahead and implemented this - however I also redid the
must_use_alias code in the process, removing a ton of gross
TARGET_I386 #ifdefs.

The must_use_alias patch needs to be applied first as it introduces
target-<arch>/qemu-kvm-arch.h which is needed for the KVM_WANT_MAPPING
patch.

Look for follow up mails to this one in a couple of minutes.
