The procedure to drop from 64-bit mode to 32-bit is a bit messy. Add a
function to take care of it. It requires identity-mapped pages and that
the calling code is running below 4GB.

I think this is a REX prefix. Is there any compiler macro we can use?
We can put some comments here for better understanding. BTW: is this a
must? I believe retf will operate on 64-bit by operand in 64-bit by
default?

I'll add a comment. In fact this problem took me ages to figure out as
the documentation seems unclear. But neither qemu nor real hardware
seem to work without this prefix.

I'll drop this one though.
