IIRC memory_region_find() was used to do DMA in the very first versions
of "virtio-blk dataplane" so you would call it multiple times in a loop.
 So it's like that because it maps the way address_space_map() works.

I think it's not a bug because ultimately it's checked in
ram_block_discard_range, but it's not pretty.
