In the function amdvi_log_event(), we write an event log buffer
entry into guest ram, whose contents are passed to the function
via the "uint64_t *evt" argument. Unfortunately, a spurious
'&' in the call to dma_memory_write() meant that instead of
writing the event to the guest we would write the literal value
of the pointer, plus whatever was in the following 8 bytes
on the stack. This error was spotted by Coverity.

Fix the bug by removing the '&'.

Disclaimer: only tested with 'make check' and 'make check-acceptance'
which probably don't exercise this corner of the code.
