Laszlo pointed out that my OVMF flash support series was not working
with QEMU master. It was working with QEMU 1.6.0. I then bisected the
issue to this commit. It seems this commit regresses -pflash support
for both KVM and non-KVM modes.

Can you reproduce the issue this with command?
x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -pflash pc-bios/bios.bin
(with or without adding -enable-kvm)

I tried adding this patch ("exec: fix regression by making
system-memory region UINT64_MAX size") and it did not help the -pflash
regression.
