firewire: cdev: restrict broadcast write requests to Units Space
We don't want random users write to Memory Space (e.g. PCs with physical
DMA filters down) or to core CSRs like Reset_Start.
This does not protect SBP-2 target CSRs. But properly behaving SBP-2
targets ignore broadcast write requests to these registers, and the
maximum damage which can happen with laxer targets is DOS. But there
are ways to create DOS situations anyway if there are devices with weak
device file permissions (like audio/video devices) present at the same
bus as an SBP-2 target.
