Subject: x86/hvm: Simplify stdvga_mem_accept() further

stdvga_mem_accept() is called on almost all IO emulations, and the
overwhelming likely answer is to reject the ioreq.  Simply rearranging the
expression yields an improvement:

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-57 (-57)
  Function                                     old     new   delta
  stdvga_mem_accept                            109      52     -57

which is best explained looking at the disassembly:

By moving the "p->count != 1" check ahead of the
ioreq_mmio_{first,last}_byte() calls, both multiplies disappear along with a
lot of surrounding logic.

No functional change.
