Here, do we still need something like:

        addr = ((iotlb.translated_addr & ~iotlb.addr_mask)
                | (addr & iotlb.addr_mask));

Just as address_space_translate() does? Now "addr" should be the
offset in memory region "mr", while we need it to be the offset in
address space if there are more loops, right?

Also, not sure whether we can abstract a shared function out of this
function and address_space_translate().

Thanks.
