s390: autodetect map private
By default qemu will use MAP_PRIVATE for guest pages. This will write
protect pages and thus break on s390 systems that dont support this feature.
Therefore qemu has a hack to always use MAP_SHARED for s390. But MAP_SHARED
has other problems (no dirty pages tracking, a lot more swap overhead etc.)
Newer systems allow the distinction via KVM_CAP_S390_COW. With this feature
qemu can use the standard qemu alloc if available, otherwise it will use
the old s390 hack.
