There is standard qemu code for doing this on create: it is hooked off the
defualt_write_handler() for PCI config writes. Perhaps we should reload the
PCI config space with a number of PCI-config writes from within qemu's PCI
load handler and that may suffice?
The code that was moved to hvmloader does not directly do mmio registration.
All it does is write device BARs, as any bootloader or OS is allowed to do.
We must handle that properly.
