So my obvious question is how are you testing this functionality? It seems as if you could have been creating more than one region somehow, or maybe something I'm just missing about this.

I think the reason you aren't seeing this is that QEMU doesn't have regions programmed by firmware. In my setup
the decoders are coming up pre-programmed and enabled by firmware, so it is hitting the path during endpoint probe.
