In the longer term I'm hoping that references to
&address_space_memory go away -- we should be modelling
separate address spaces per CPU and per every other
thing that can act as a DMA master (ie issue memory
transactions). I'm not sure exactly how virtio ought to
work since these accesses directly to memory are a total
hack, but probably we will end up setting the virtio
device up and handing it an AddressSpace* that it should use.
