Aren't those two separate issues?  The PA, a.k.a. memslots space, can be solved
by allocating a dedicated memslot, i.e. doesn't need a carve.  At worst, collisions
will yield very explicit asserts, which IMO is better than whatever might go wrong
with a carve out.

Oooh, this crud:

 	virt_pg_map(vm, mmio_gpa, mmio_gpa);

Yeah, that needs to be fixed.  But again, that's a separate issue, e.g. selftests
can allocate a virtual address and map the read-only memslot.
