I have tried this branch, and the data get corrupted another way. This
is due to the fact that the source address is not incremented for the
second write. The patch below fixes that.
With this patch, I haven't be able to make any corruption. I have added
a printk in the code to see that I have been able to trigger 21
cross-boundary writes without any problem in the various guests.
So I think this bug is now fixed. Thanks for your help.
