blkio_register_buf() calls blkio_map_mem_region(). Is the
bdrv_register_buf callback maybe skipped somehow when
needs_mem_regions is false?

Regardless, I'd say we want to map memory regions even if we don't
strictly need to (in cases where we can do so at no additional cost),
since that may improve performance for some drivers.
