memory: Add global-locking property to memory regions

Browse Source 
This introduces the memory region property "global_locking". It is true
by default. By setting it to false, a device model can request BQL-free
dispatching of region accesses to its r/w handlers. The actual BQL
break-up will be provided in a separate patch.
