On non-book-E, if a faulting PC is in the first few pages, and it's not an
ITLB miss, it's likely executing in real mode, probably at an exception vector.
Rather than print a useless XXXXXXXX, it is assumed that this is the case, and
the address is treated as physical. This helps when debugging corruption at
the beginning of memory.
