FlatView
FlatView，从字面上看意思就是 扁平视图。那是谁的偏平视图呢？
从大了说是地址空间的偏平视图，但是仔细想想它是对应MemoryRegion的。因为MemoryRegion是一颗树，那相应的就可以有一个偏平空间。
说到这儿，其实已经没有什么花头了。不就是一个偏平视图么？但是为了充数，还是要展开讲讲的。突然想到了《三体》世界中的低纬展开，这个MemoryRegion到FlatView的过程还真有点像。
这个过程在qemu中分成了两步：
generate_memory_topology()
address_space_set_flatview()
后者是将AddressSpace和FlatView进行关联。
而前者的工作又分成两部分：
render_memory_region
flatview_add_to_dispatch
render_memory_region
这个函数的作用就是将树状的MemoryRegion展开成一维的FlatView。
因为确实没啥多说的，还是用张图来表示AddressSpace，MemoryRegion和FlatView之间的关系。
AddressSpace
+-------------------------+
|name |

|current_map | -------->|nr |
| (FlatView *) | |nr_allocated |

| |

| |
| | MemoryRegion(system_memory/system_io)
+-------------------------+ +----------------------+
|root | | | root of a MemoryRegion
| (MemoryRegion *) | -------->| | tree
+-------------------------+ +----------------------+在AddressSpace中，root和current_map分别指向了树状的地址空间和对应的一维展开。
至于为什么要使用这样两种数据结构，暂时还不知道这样做的好处。等我想明白了再回来解释。
flatview_add_to_dispatch
这个函数的主要任务就是构建AddressSpaceDispatch这个结构了。让人吃惊的是，这是一个庞然大物。
恐怕大家是要缩小了才能看清楚的吧。

phys_map 像是CR3
nodes 是一个用链表存储了的页表
sections 是nodes的叶子ptr指向的内容，其中包含了MemoryRegion
希望这么解释能够在一定程度上帮助理解。
