This needs to be 'unsigned long', using 'hpa_t' in vmsave() is wrong as the
instructions consume rAX based on effective address. I wrote the function
comment for the vmsave() fix so that it applies to both VMSAVE and VMLOAD,
so this can be a simple fixup on application (assuming v5 isn't needed for
other reasons).

Yup, fixed.
