The memory core drops regions that are hidden by another region (for example,
during BAR sizing), but it doesn't do so correctly if the lower address of the
existing range is below the lower address of the new range.
Example (qemu-system-mips -M malta -kernel vmlinux-2.6.32-5-4kc-malta
-append "console=ttyS0" -nographic -vga cirrus):
Existing range: 10000000-107fffff
New range: 100a0000-100bffff
Correct behaviour: drop new range
Incorrect behaviour: add new range
Fix by taking this case into account (previously we only considered
equal lower boundaries).

* qemu-kvm/memory/urgent:
memory: abort if a memory region is destroyed during a transaction
i440fx: avoid destroying memory regions within a transaction
memory: Make eventfd adhere to device endianness
Currently we use a global radix tree to dispatch memory access. This only
works with a single address space; to support multiple address spaces we
make the radix tree a member of AddressSpace (via an intermediate structure
AddressSpaceDispatch to avoid exposing too many internals).
A side effect is that address_space_io also gains a dispatch table. When
we remove all the pre-memory-API I/O registrations, we can use that for
dispatching I/O and get rid of the original I/O dispatch.

Our memory API MMIO regions know the concept of device endianness. This
is used to automatically swap endianness between devices and host CPU,
depending on whether buses in between would swizzle the bits.
The ioeventfd value comparison does not adhere to that semantic though.
Probably because nobody has been running ioeventfd on a BE platform and
the only device implementing ioeventfd right now is LE (PCI) based.
So add swizzling to ioeventfd registration / deletion to make the rest
of the code as consistent as possible.

Commit e58ac72b6a0 ("ioport: change portio_list not to use
memory_region_set_offset()") started using aliases of I/O memory
regions. Since the IORange used for the I/O was contained in the
target region, the alias information (specifically, the offset
into the region) was lost. This broke -vga std.
Fix by allocating an independent object to hold the IORange and
also the new offset.
Note that I/O memory regions were conceptually broken wrt aliases
in a different way: an alias can cause the same region to appear
twice in an address space, but we had just one IORange to service it.
This patch fixes that problem as well, since we can now have multiple
IORange/MemoryRegion associations.

It is quite common to have a MemoryRegion with size of INT64_MAX.

easy to find a case where it will construct a temporary AddrRange with
a non-zero start, and size still of INT64_MAX. When means attempting
to compute the end of such a range as start + size will result in
signed integer overflow.
This integer overflow means that addrrange_intersects() can
incorrectly report regions as not intersecting when they do. For
example consider the case of address ranges {0x10000000000,
0x7fffffffffffffff} and {0x10010000000, 0x10000000} where the second
