If the low level MMU hash table insertion returns an error (which
can happen in some rare circumstances when the hypervisor refuses
the insertion of a PTE, typically if you try to access junk via
/dev/mem), the generated signal had an incorrect si_addr value due
to a bug in the assembly, which was loading it as a 32 bits quantity
instead of a 64 bits quantity.
