OK, this is the unfortunate chain of events:

rom_state_paddr becomes invalid, so vapic_map_rom_writable, called by
vapic_prepare during the 16-bit write, accesses an invalid region to
grab the ROM size from the ROM image. This size becomes 0, and the
g_malloc in patch_hypercalls return NULL as we try to allocate 0 bytes.
So memcmp uses a NULL pointer as base for walking the ROM image. I'll
send a separate patch to catch this case.

Other invalid ROM size values cannot cause harm. At most, 128K is
allocated, and random guest memory is read.
