Ah sorry, we need the handler because we can received aborts from
user-land after the boot.
I have 2 solutions, the first to simplify we can only return 0.
The second is to manage handler during boot. Then i need for that a
new patch from Fabrice

This is only to check the msi magic address given to ip, we never read
or write in this area.
this code is only a check
