Mirroring https://github.com/oracle/qemu/issues/10 here for visibility:
Currently, vfio_user_region_write uses VFIO_USER_NO_REPLY unconditionally,
meaning essentially all writes are posted. But that shouldn't be the case, for
example for PCI config space, where it's expected that writes will wait for an
ack before the VCPU continues.
