Rather than reinventing the wheel I suggest looking at how QEMU

Note that this is about *writable* persistent memory,

as those holding Linux crash dumps.
Yep. We already support flash backed by a block device
for x86 and ARM.
Then using that on SPARC would be much closer to solving the OPs
problem than trying to create new code based on mmap(), ROM loading
code etc.
Enjoy
