Something else - it's okay to leak all this memory for ISA, but not PCI.

We could separate this into a helper that returns an array of 
MemoryRegions.  i_r_o_p_l() could then just use the helper, while 
pci-ide would call the helper directly and then all 
pci_register_legacy_ioport() on each MemoryRegion.
