It's intended. The VM is running in 32-bit PAE mode, and Table 4-7 of the Intel manual says: Table 4-7. Use of CR3 with PAE Paging Bit Position(s) Contents 4:0 Ignored 31:5 Physical address of the 32-Byte aligned page-directory-pointer table used for linear-address translation 63:32 Ignored (these bits exist only on processors supporting the Intel-64 architecture) I'll queue a revert of this patch.
