I think the request was to include a start/end IO address hint when
creating the ios. When the kernel creates it then it can return the
actual geometry including any holes via a query.

ioas works well here I think. Use ioas_id to refer to the xarray
index.

xarray id's should consistently be u32s everywhere.

Many of the same prior comments repeated here
