[PULL v2 31/39] *-user: Deprecate and disable -p pagesize
Posted by Richard Henderson 9 months ago
This option controls the host page size.  From the mis-usage in
our own testsuite, this is easily confused with guest page size.

The only thing that occurs when changing the host page size is
that stuff breaks, because one cannot actually change the host
page size.  Therefore reject all but the no-op setting as part
of the deprecation process.
