Yes, I know. But there is no AP model within qemu. I added the mapping
to AP and enabled VGA console to do some basic checks that i/o accesses
happen. It didn't really have to be integrator platform at all for this
test. I know it's not much of a test, but it's something beyond
compiling and staring at the code.

I've also tested PCI i/o with versatile under qemu.
