CRIU dumps the memory contents using a parasite code from inside the dumpee address space, so it would work the same way as for the other mappings. Of course, at the restore time the exclusive mapping should be recreated with the appropriate flags.

I don't quite follow. If qemu would use such mappings it would be able to transfer them during live migration.
