Writing to any of the HOST_DATA0-7 registers pushes the written data
into a 128-bit accumulator. When the accumulator is full a flush is
triggered to copy it to the framebuffer. A final write to HOST_DATA_LAST
will also initiate a flush. The flush itself is left for the next patch.

Unaligned HOST_DATA* writes result in, from what I can tell, undefined
behavior on real hardware. A well-behaved driver shouldn't be doing this
anyway. For that reason they are not handled here at all.
