That was my initial approach, but this code seems to run on 32 bits system,
and I do not want to change the whole 'reason' bit width without having a 32
bits to test, at least.

Also, it is a bit weird doing something as:

	printk("....(msr 0x%lx)....", reason);

I personally think that the follow code is much more readable:

	printk(".... (msr 0x%lx)...", regs->msr);
