That's OK. The question is if memory_region_set_log should work on both invisible AND visible regions. The former makes it a bit-flip service, the latter requires a larger machinery. BTW, what's broken is legacy VGA mem dirty logging. Was simply dropped during the conversion, and now I'm missing some links between vga core and its users to reestablish it generically.
