I think this is the wrong approach given the introduction of the memory API.

I think we should have a generic memory access function that takes a 
MemoryRegion as it's first argument.

The PCI bus should then expose one memory region for each device (that's 
how it can figure out where the access is coming from).

Richard/Avi, what do you think?
