+Problems related to checking page crossing in use_goto_tb()
+
+The discussion that led to this bug discovery can be found in this 
+mailing list thread:
+https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-05/msg05426.html
+
+A workaround for this problem would be to check for page crossings for 
+both the user and system modes in the use_goto_tb() function across 
+targets. Some targets like "hppa" already implement this fix but others
+don't.
+
+To solve the root cause of this problem, the linux-user/mmap.c should 
+be fixed to do all the invalidations required. By doing so, up to 6.93% 
+performance improvements will be achieved.
