The marchid register will be negative for commercial architecture ids
because the MSB must be set.

The spec says this register is "left to the provider" and may be
left-justified. I don't think we can be sure the MSB will not be set.
For both cases I guess we need an extra bit to determine if we've cached
or not
static bool cached;
static long id;
if (!cached) {
id = ecall();
cached = true;
}
return id;
