BTW this is very easy to test.
Add an unused device (like ivshmem) enable BAR, and set it to 0.
System should survive, as opposed to hanging.

But the big question is whether this is the right
thing to do for each platform.
For PIIX whatever is not system memory, is PCI.
But other boxes might have a different view of the matter.
