Currently when mapping io memory regions into a mini-os domain a check is performed to make sure the memory region really is io memory. While this is a good idea in practice, the code doing the check fails if you have over 4GB since there may be system memory mapped after the io memory mappings.

This patch disables the check and turns it into a stub. It is required for tpm passthrough to the vtpm manager domain.
