looking at it more, question is why do we have a separate
piece of ram mapped here that overlays system ram.
Can we remove this memory region and let guest use
underling initial memory?

Title:
Windows 7 guest won't boot on qemu 2.10 (works on 2.9)
Status in QEMU:
New
Bug description:
Qemu version: 2.10 stable.
Guest: Windows 7 SP1 x64, virtio drivers are already installed in the guest.
Command line:
qemu-system-x86_64 \
-nodefaults \
-nodefconfig \
-machine type=q35,accel=kvm \
-enable-kvm \
-cpu host \
-m 2048 \
-vga virtio \
-boot menu=on \
-smbios file=/path/dmidecode_BIOS.bin \
-acpitable file=/path/acpi_slic.bin \
-bios /path/OVMF_CODE.fd \
-net none \
-drive if=virtio,media=disk,file=/media/win7.qcow2 \
-device pcie-root-port \
-device ich9-usb-ehci1 \
-device ich9-usb-uhci1 \
-device ich9-usb-uhci2 \
-device ich9-usb-uhci3
Windows hangs at boot with waving flag screen (flag doesn't freeze,
keeps waving indefinitely). Same command line boots fine with Qemu
2.9. I tried changing machine type to pc-q35-2.9 - same result.
