Looks like with this approach we would need to add this to all machine models which make use of PCI. But is it a good idea? As far
as i understand, the only requirement for this region is not to clash with guest RAM addresses. So, can we instead have some code,
which automatically finds some place, based on the size? For now we hardcode the size to 0x00100000, but in future we could query
the host for the size, because it's still host's MSI controller.
Kind regards,
