+/*
+ * A parent reserves an address range with PROT_NONE and never touches it.
+ * Such a mapping has no "ac" flag in /proc/pid/smaps, so CRIU marks it
+ * VMA_AREA_NOT_ACCOUNTABLE. After fork() the child turns the very same range
+ * into a writable mapping and fills it with data.
+ *
+ * CRIU pairs VMAs that coincide by start/end and flags regardless of their
+ * protection bits (see check_cow_vmas()), so the parent's PROT_NONE,
+ * not-accountable VMA becomes the COW root of the child's data VMA.
+ *
+ * On restore, premap_private_vma() used to map a PROT_NONE & not-accountable
+ * COW root with PROT_NONE. The child then inherits that mapping (mremap) and
+ * restore_priv_vma_content() copies the child's pages into it -- writing to a
+ * PROT_NONE mapping faults and the restored task dies with SIGSEGV.
+ *
+ * The fix keeps a COW root writable; this test crashes at restore without it
+ * and passes with it.
