So for mem_access nothing changes in this patch, fill_regs was already
called from p2m.c. For MSR's I just missed adding the extra call. As for
vm_event_monitor_guest_request, it will needs to be moved to be
arch-specific. I think I'll do it as a precursor patch where I move it to
be in the arch-specific monitor code (where it should be actually). Will do
these fixes in the next round.

Thanks,
