Why this (void) cast?

true instead of 1?

false?

It feels a bit odd to have separate methods at this level, converging
onto a single one that has to apply separate treatments in
kvm_handle_cp_{32,64} depending on the CP number. I wonder if it
wouldn't be nicer to either keep the paths separate entirely, or have a
single access method that does it all.
