/*
* Test patching code, running in one thread, from another thread.
*
* Intel SDM calls this "cross-modifying code" and recommends a special
* sequence, which requires both threads to cooperate.
*
* Linux kernel uses a different sequence that does not require cooperation and
* involves patching the first byte with int3.
*
* Finally, there is user-mode software out there that simply uses atomics, and
* that seems to be good enough in practice. Test that QEMU has no problems
* with this as well.
