I have this coded up, will test on x86 and arm64 and send out a series (essentially
all of the non-SEV bits in this series).

Prescribing an MMIO address from __vm_create() has a some nice side effects.

  1) KVM treats writes to read-only memslots as MMIO, so a future cleanup would
     be to have __vm_create() create a memslot for the MMIO range to prevent
     silently clobbering the address.  I'll leave this for later because selftests
     currently assumes they can use all memslots except memslot0.

  2) It will simplify wwitching x86 and RISC-V to a common MMIO implementation,
     if we ever want to do that.  I.e. have common code for everything except s390.
