Missing review: patch #19 (new)

Since v1:
- Addressed Edgar review comments
- New patch to map RSVD I/O region (Paolo)
- Added Edgar R-b tags

This is the result of a long discussion with Edgar (started few
years ago!) and Paolo:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/[e-mail]/
After clarification from Richard on MMIO/RAM accesses, I figured
strengthening the model regions would make things obvious,
eventually allowing to remove the tswap() calls for good.

This costly series mostly plays around with MemoryRegions.

The model has a mix of RAM/MMIO in its address range. Currently
they are implemented as a MMIO array of u32. Since the core
memory layer swaps accesses for MMIO, the device implementation
has to swap them back.
In order to avoid that, we'll map the RAM regions as RAM MRs.
First we move each MMIO register to new MMIO regions (RX and TX).
Then what is left are the RAM buffers; we convert them to RAM MRs,
removing the need for tswap() at all.

Once reviewed, I'll respin my "hw/microblaze: Allow running
cross-endian vCPUs" series based on this.

Tested using 'make check-functional-microblaze{,el}'.

Please review,

Phil.
