Thank you for your effort. Applying the patch allows NetBSD on SS-10
to boot as far as on SS-5, previously it crashed.
I think the code is portable, but I think changing the register type
to uint32_t and using a DPRINTF system like used in for example
hw/iommu.c should make the code slightly clearer.
For the memory access, ldl/q_phys/stl/q_phys is used in other block
copy routines. For longer blocks or if the address can be unaligned,
cpu_physical_memory_read() could be a better choice.

unsigned int cpu?

If it's an error to access the registers with different size, you
should use do_unassigned_access() to report this.
