super nit: I choked a bit on this contruct, any objections to adding a
comment like the following above:

	/*
	 * Try to emulate the coprocessor access using the target
	 * specific table first, and using the global table aftwards.
	 * If either of the tables contains a handler, handle the
	 * potential register operation in the case of a read and return
	 * with success.
	 */

Too much?

(If not, I can also add this when applying).
