Make that an io region, have the read() handler return 0xff, write
handler do nothing except maybe logging/tracing the access for debugging
purposes.  That is more correct for unassigned mmio space than backing
by memory.  Adding memory also breaks migration btw.

I somehow still think this should be handled one layer up (i.e. the
parent region) which could do the approximate arch-specific action.

Any chance the access you are seeing is at offset 0x68?

cheers,
