Hello all:

This patch is only for a discussion, I guess this patch is valuable for
i386 wine running Windows.

Theoretically, this patch is incorrect, we have to implement softmmu to
support different host and target pages (e.g. host 8KB, target 4KB):

 - If host 8KB is mapped as PRIVATE | FIXED, and runs a while (trigger
   copy on write).

 - Then map its low 4KB as SHARED | FIXED.

 - It has to fail.

So this patch is only a temporary fix:

 - It looks Windows maps shared memory with 64KB alignments (at least,
   at present, it is true).

 - OS will manage the process address area: let most shared memory area
   nearby.

 - After this patch, we can run Windows Notepad.exe and ACDSee5.0 setup
   program successfully. Next, I will run wine with the true windows
   system dlls for a test (e.g. windows own kernel32.dll).

I guess, we can use a switch macro or a new input parameter to enable or
disable the related code (if they are really valuable enough for some
using cases).

Thanks.
