To get the size of the expansion ROM, software writes 0xfffff800 to the expansion ROM BAR in the PCI configuration space. PCI emulation executes the optional configuration space write callback that a device can implement before emulating this write. kvmtool's implementation of VFIO doesn't have support for emulating expansion ROMs. However, the callback writes the guest value to the hardware BAR, and then it reads it back to the emulated BAR to make sure the write has completed successfully. After this, we return to regular PCI emulation and because the BAR is no longer 0, we write back to the BAR the value that the guest used to get the size. As a result, the guest will think that the ROM size is 0x800 after the subsequent read and we end up unintentionally exposing to the guest a BAR which we don't emulate. Let's fix this by ignoring writes to the expansion ROM BAR.
