Ideally, yes, but for this patch, it gets weird because the output param of
vcpu_reg_get() isn't actually restricted to a 64-bit value prior to patch 2.
E.g. if this patch were merged without that rework, then the assert would be
confusing and arguably flat out wrong.

As for the hack-a-fix, I deliberately ordered it after patch 2 so that it would
be easier for others to (try to) reproduce the bug.  I have no objection to
swapping 2 and 3 in the next version.
