Yes, but it's not something *devices* should be doing.

At least for qxl, all it seems to do is enable/disable
logging when the region is enabled disabled.
I'm not sure I follow what does vmware do - something

the standard memory enable?

pv vga like vmware and qxl disables logging when the pv interface is active.
