Luca, if you feel like wasting some time, you can probably bruteforce
this.

I assume this keepout thing could be expanded in a generic way and
made into a dt property.

Other than that, I think it'd be fine to skip that for now, as it
sounds like it's functional so long as you don't intentionally access
forbidden regs.
