Yup, it's just that I spotted it while reading the code.

Ok, this definitely is worth some rework around the edges. For now, I
suppose keeping it stable will do.

Don't bother for now. I'll see if we can do things differently later.

Yup. The RESTOREALL case doesn't write the result to the PT_REGS but I'm
not yet sure if that's a big issue to do it regardless or not.
