Sadly a lot of firmware is known to fail in that configuration :(  That was very much our guest choice.

Why can't we map everything completely 1:1 (VA = PA) and call the
setVA thing but pass it literally the identity.

Firmwares that need it to be called will work, and firmwares that fail
to update all offsets will be fine because there's nothing to update.
