Subject: system/physmem: add helper to reattach existing memory after KVM VM fd change
X-Git-Tag: v11.0.0-rc0~43^2~57

system/physmem: add helper to reattach existing memory after KVM VM fd change

After the guest KVM file descriptor has changed as a part of the process of
confidential guest reset mechanism, existing memory needs to be reattached to
the new file descriptor. This change adds a helper function ram_block_rebind()
for this purpose. The next patch will make use of this function.
