Some more comments about this:

* After I looked at the kvmtool code some more, I think it would be nice to
  actually move the I/O space window to a nonzero location, e.g. between the
  PCI space and the AXI space. It's really confusing the way it is, and easy
  to introduce bugs if you have any code that accidentally relies on the
  numbers matching up. For all I can tell, kvmtool should just work fine
  with any definition of ARM_IOPORT_AREA, as long as you apply the trivial
  patch below.

* pci_get_io_space_block() is a very confusing name for a function that
  allocates a memory space block in kvmtool. It seems that KVM_IOPORT_AREA
  is a misnomer for the same reason. Note that PowerPC sets KVM_IOPORT_AREA
  to zero, but has the I/O space window at SPAPR_PCI_IO_WIN_ADDR, 
  which is non-zero.

* It's interesting that you also support I/O space access to the PCI config
  space through PC-Style ports 0cf8-0cff. Not sure if that helps at all,
  but it is another standard way to probe the bus that could easily be
  implemented as an alternative to CAM and ECAM, in a generic PCI host
  driver.
