The memmove below means this logic is unnecessary.

I'd prefer some logic over blind moves of several megabytes (3-16),
this will kill simulators.

Wait a minute, doesn't systemsim has a passthrough call for memmove? If
we should wire that up then this won't impact performance at all.

We were/are trying to eliminate all simulator specific passthrus in the Xen core code.
