Again, we're off in the weeds.

How does the VMM know how much to read/write? I have a theory: the spec
says that R12 is:

"Shared 4KB GPA as input – the memory contains a
TDREPORT_STRUCT."

That's *A* 4KB GPA. The maximum is one 4KB page. That's the only thing
that makes sense because there's no length in the ABI anywhere.

What am I missing?
