Thinking about this and the other sub-dword matches again, there is a
problem in my approach:

I redirect the complete write to the virtualized space once there is an
overlap. So a dword write at PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE would not touch the real
PCI_MIN_GNT & PCI_MAX_LAT. But writing directly to those without overlap
would. The same applies to our reserved space, though this inconsistency
is not critical here - but still undesirable.
