If I understand correctly you've already found the explanation why

Multi-transaction works faster in complete_mmio, so read_emulated()
should use it by doing int n = min(size, (unsigned)KVM_MMIO_SIZE).
Other code in read_emulated() is still needed since it provides read
re-play for multiple mmio reads during instruction emulation.
