patch 1 modifies handler of ram device memory regions to drop guest writes to read-only ram device memory regions
patch 2 modifies handler of non-mmap'd read-only vfio regions to drop guest writes to those regions patch 3 set read-only flag to mmap'd read-only vfio regions, so that guest writes to those regions would be trapped. without patch 1, host qemu would then crash on guest write to those read-only regions. with patch 1, host qemu would drop the writes.
