It's not entirely symmetric however, as you cannot write to the MMIO
registers of romd devices. Is this correct? So I'll leave to others
the review of whether the functionality is appropriate. Regarding the code:

I would prefer to leave this API as is, and instead add a new API such
as address_space_write_debug or address_space_program. It's okay to add
the "force" argument to address_space_write_continue.

This needs comments. If you go with address_space_write_debug, rename
MEMTX_PROGRAM to MEMTX_WRITE_DEBUG.
