With these hints I've figured out what's actually happening here:
subpage_writelen() is reading a wrong index 2 == IO_MEM_UNASSIGNED from
subpage_t and performing an unassigned memory write, confirmed by
DEBUG_UNASSIGNED.
In subpage_register(), we're taking the (memory & ~TARGET_PAGE_MASK) ==
IO_MEM_RAM path and setting IO_MEM_UNASSIGNED in subpage_t.
Will investigate further tomorrow.
Andreas
