I've been playing with a hacked-up kvmtool that places the memory much higher than usual, in an effort to emulate what some arm64 platforms do (typically AMD Seattle).
Unexpectedly (hey, what could possibly go wrong...), I've discovered a couple of mm related issues, ranging from the host exploding to the guest being stuck on a page fault. Additionally, I noticed a minor documentation issue. With these fixes in, I'm able to run a guest that has its memory located just under the 40bit limit.
