Ah! Thanks for this. The mmio test does now fail for me too. The sysreg
test still doesn't fail for me (even though I'm doing the above on the
vcpu I use for that too). Maybe there's something weird with which reg
I'm using, and whether or not my attempt to get trapping enabled on it
is working the way I expected. I'll play with it some more.

Yes, I'll send a patch for this soon. I actually have something similar to this
in my local tree already, I just hadn't bothered sending it as I didn't think
anybody else needed it yet.

It'd be nice if you could go through the procedure. You've been sending
patches to KVM, and ideally we'll start trying to send kvm-unit-tests
patches along with feature patches.
Thanks,
