Nice writeup.

I see you needed to disable use of mlockall() for that. Care to send a
patch? This should preferably check for existence of mlockall() in
configure, and #ifdef it away if it's not present. If not, I could
probably write something myself, but I don't have a lot of experience
compiling C code for android, so I might make a mistake.

I also noticed you used qemu-nbd rather than nbd-server. Any particular
reason for that?
