Where is it called for that purpose? The only place where gva_to_gpa
callback is called is in kvm/kvm_mips_emul.c:kvm_mips_emulate_(store|load)

> (2) Handle I/O accesses by the guest.  On MIPS platforms, I/O device registers are mapped into the KSEG1 address space (unmapped, uncached).  Again like (1) these are actual KSEG1 addresses, which cause an exception and are passed onto QEMU for I/O emulation.

So guest KSEG1 registers is mapped to 0xA0000000-0xBFFFFFFF ranges just
like on a host? Can you give corresponding segment names to those ranges

Guest User address space:   0x00000000 -> 0x40000000 (useg?)
Guest Kernel Unmapped:      0x40000000 -> 0x60000000 (kseg0?)
Guest Kernel Mapped:        0x60000000 -> 0x80000000 (?)
