32  * MemoryDeviceClass:
33  *
34  * All memory devices need to implement TYPE_MEMORY_DEVICE as an interface.
35  *
36  * A memory device is a device that owns a memory region which is
37  * mapped into guest physical address space at a certain address. The
38  * address in guest physical memory can either be specified explicitly
39  * or get assigned automatically.
40  *
41  * Some memory device might not own a memory region in certain device
42  * configurations. Such devices can logically get (un)plugged, however,
43  * empty memory devices are mostly ignored by the memory device code.
44  *
45  * Conceptually, memory devices only span one memory region. If multiple
46  * successive memory regions are used, a covering memory region has to
47  * be provided. Scattered memory regions are not supported for single
48  * devices.
49  *
50  * The device memory region returned via @get_memory_region may either be a
51  * single RAM memory region or a memory region container with subregions
52  * that are RAM memory regions or aliases to RAM memory regions. Other
53  * memory regions or subregions are not supported.
54  *
55  * If the device memory region returned via @get_memory_region is a
56  * memory region container, it's supported to dynamically (un)map subregions
57  * as long as the number of memslots returned by @get_memslots() won't
58  * be exceeded and as long as all memory regions are of the same kind (e.g.,
59  * all RAM or all ROM).
