Nice idea, though I don't really like the duplication between
kvm_io_bus_write and kvm_io_bus_write_cookie.

Can you make kvm_io_bus_write, and perhaps kvm_io_bus_read too, return
the cookie, and return -EINVAL here if the cookie is garbage?
(Unfortunately, most callers of kvm_io_bus_read/write expect them to
never return a value that is >= 0, but there aren't many so it's easily
solved).
