No, that would need guest changes to be of use. The point of this hack
is to make things work for Linux guests where PIO does not
Currently virtio-pci is specified so that configuration of the device is
done through a PCI IO space (via BAR 0 of the virtual PCI device).
However, Linux guests happen to use ioread/iowrite/iomap primitives
for access, and these work uniformly across memory/io BARs.
While PCI IO accesses are

To configure the device, we use the first I/O region of the PCI
device.
Meh, it
