If you are using a guest with more than 3.75GB or so.  The load_kernel 
function uses phys_ram_base + addr and that assumption is violated in 
KVM with guests > ~3.75GB of memory.  We either need to allocate memory 
for the hole and never touch it or change load_kernel to use 
cpu_physical_memory_rw.  I know we discussed this before but I don't 
remember if we came to a consensus about what the correct fix is?
