Log Message:
ddb/amd64: Don't go out of the way to detect invalid addresses.

db_disasm had logic to detect invalid addresses before trying to
disassemble them.  But when disassembling a null instruction address,
the logic to detect invalid addresses itself tried to dereference an
invalid address.

db_get_value can already handle this situation gracefully, so there is
no need for this faulty fault-avoidance logic.

Fixes double-fault in ddb on calling null function pointers.  With
any luck, this should make diagnosing such bugs easier in the future!
