Current code incorrectly adds 1 to full register instead of
incrementing the field in bits 15:12.

Just in this field? The field is only 4 bits! ;-)
But this actually fixes a regression that was triggered by recent
hvmloader change on one particular processor that we have in the test farm.

Ian, this is a backport candidate and needs to go back as far as
possible. The bogus calculation was introduced in 2008 (!).

Thanks, but:
Not queued for backport because the patch is not in staging.
