Hi Philippe,
Sorry for the delay; I was away for a few weeks visiting family.

I don't have a Malta handy to check (they're mostly "retired" these
days & the vast majority of surviving ones use newer FPGA daughtercards
with the MSC01-style system controller anyway), but I believe writes
just get dropped & reads return zero. At least that's the way I recall
most accesses to unused address ranges working on Malta.
(Which is really annoying sometimes, and the newer Boston system gives
you a bus error in the equivalent scenario.)
Thanks,
Paul
