This function is invoked to handle 2 scenarios:
(1) Parse the boot code config tables setup by QEMU's Malta emulation. The pointers in the tables are actual KSEG0 addresses (unmapped, cached) and not Guest KSEG0 addresses.
(2) Handle I/O accesses by the guest. On MIPS platforms, I/O device registers are mapped into the KSEG1 address space (unmapped, uncached). Again like (1) these are actual KSEG1 addresses, which cause an exception and are passed onto QEMU for I/O emulation.
