So approximately 351% overhead

3.10e-06 seconds was the average time for performing the write with an entry and
exit from deprvileged mode.
So approximately 178% overhead.
How does this compare to the overhead of passing the I/O through to qemu?
So, passing this portio op through to QEMU takes roughly 20e-6 seconds.
However, I don't know if the emulator would have gone and prodded a
physical port as port of that which could skew the result. I'll look
into this and get back if I find anything to clarify this.
