Doesn't work that easily as there are different things to check.
request_capability verifies the capability itself only, map_capability
has a bunch of additional range checks because it supports partial maps.

I had it that way first, simply calling request_mem_region from
map_capability. But then you get tons of notify entries in /proc/iomem,
and keeping track of the requested regions (for cleanup in
virtio_pci_modern_remove) also is more complicated than with a simple
set of 4 fixed regions.

Right (not the case in the current qemu implementation, but still ...).

I'll fix them for the next version.
