Half the bug now, half the bug next year... haha I'll send a v2.

aside:
All this duplication is kind of annoying. I'm looking into what it would
take to have quadword instruction emulation here as well (Alexey caught
a bug with syskaller) and the code would be really similar. I see that
x86 has a more generic implementation that maybe we could take advantage
of. See "f78146b0f923 (KVM: Fix page-crossing MMIO)"
