The start address of the memory region has to be specified in the "gaddr"
field, and the length of the region in the "size" field. "buf" is the buffer
supplied by the userspace application where the read data should be written
to for KVM_S390_MEMOP_LOGICAL_READ, or where the data that should be written
is stored for a KVM_S390_MEMOP_LOGICAL_WRITE. "buf" is unused and can be NULL
when KVM_S390_MEMOP_F_CHECK_ONLY is specified. "ar" designates the access
register number to be used.

be 0). The maximum value for "size" can be obtained by checking the
KVM_CAP_S390_MEM_OP capability. "buf" is the buffer supplied by the
userspace application where the read data should be written to for
KVM_S390_MEMOP_LOGICAL_READ, or where the data that should be written is
stored for a KVM_S390_MEMOP_LOGICAL_WRITE. When KVM_S390_MEMOP_F_CHECK_ONLY
is specified, "buf" is unused and can be NULL. "ar" designates the access
register number to be used; the valid range is 0..15.
The "reserved" field is meant for future extensions. It is not used by
KVM with the currently defined set of flags.
