Although explicitly disallowed by the PCI spec, some guests read a
single byte or word from mmio.  Likely a guest OS bug, but I have an OS
which reads single bytes and it works fine on real hardware.

OK so it could like something like the below. However, my question is:
do we need to put this in or can the guest simply be fixed?
