AFAIK this is guest ABI only because qemu uses this to generate
hugepages rather than regular memory, not that it would be guest ABI
per se.

Same here, shared access does not really transform to guest ABI.

This is definitely not guest ABI.


Note that there's a difference between guest ABI and differences in
configurations which are rejected by qemu.

I think we need a mechanism to deal with these in a different way
because it's possible that other hypervisors will have different ideas
on the compatibility of these options.
