Note that self code-modifying is a special case for any processors, especially
if that is multi-processor. In general, this may depend on the circuit desgin,
not ISA.
Some processor implementation will do in-order and no i-cache, no SMP, that will
be simple, but if it is out-of-order, deep pipeline, huge i-cache, and many-core,
you might have to care many things. We have to talk with someone who is designing
real hardware, and maybe better to make the patch_text pluggable for variants.

Ah, OK. So for the first version, we introduce this separated code until
someone complains it.
