Current vfio-pci implementation disallows to mmap
sub-page(size < PAGE_SIZE) MMIO BARs because these BARs' mmio
page may be shared with other BARs.

But we should allow to mmap these sub-page MMIO BARs if PCI
resource allocator can make sure these BARs' mmio page will
not be shared with other BARs.

this would be a preferable line wrap:

OK. I'll fix it.
