Except it doesn't work... I'm now experiencing a systematic crash of
systemd at boot in my fedora31 guest:

[    3.322912] systemd[1]: segfault (11) at 7ffff3eaf550 nip 7ce4d42f8d78 lr 9d82c098fc0 code 1 in libsystemd-shared-243.so[7ce4d4150000+2e0000]
[    3.323112] systemd[1]: code: 00000480 60420000 3c4c001e 3842edb0 7c0802a6 3d81fff0 fb81ffe0 fba1ffe8 
[    3.323244] systemd[1]: code: fbc1fff0 fbe1fff8 f8010010 7c200b78 <f801f001> 7c216000 4082fff8 f801ff71 

f801f001 is

0x1a8d78 <serialize_item_format+40>: stdu    r0,-4096(r1)

which analyse_instr() is supposed to decode as a STORE that
updates r1 so we should be good... Unfortunately analyse_instr()
forbids partial register sets, since it might return op->val
based on some register content depending on the instruction:

	/* Following cases refer to regs->gpr[], so we need all regs */
	if (!FULL_REGS(regs))
		return -1;

analyse_instr() was introduced with instruction emulation in mind, which
goes far beyond the need we have in store_updates_sp(). Especially the
fault path doesn't care for the register content at all...

Not sure how to cope with that correctly (refactor analyse_instr() ? ) but
until someone comes up with a solution, please don't merge this patch.

Cheers,
