Subject: [PATCH] scripts/gdb: add mm introspection utils
This command provides a way to traverse the entire page hierarchy by a
given virtual address. In addition to qemu's commands info tlb/info mem
it provides the complete information about the paging structure for an
arbitrary virtual address. It supports 4Kb/2MB/1GB and 5 level paging.
Here is an example output for 2MB success translation:
