Regarding the read-IO, write-IO, read-RAM, write-RAM slots feature for kvm...

Unfortunately, this is not much related to the CSM issue.

It sounds to me like this feature would be important for a good
implementation of flash support that covers both qemu & kvm.

How big is this task?  How can I find out more to see if I can help?
