I really don't understand the first sentence here. We are already out
of the guest, so do you mean a return to userspace?

I think the second sentence could be more clear as well. Is 'stuff' not
actually 'MMIO emulation' or 'emulation' more broadly?

Don't you want if (handled == 1) or if (handled > 0) ?

If there was an error I think we want to just return that to userspace
and not override it and present single-stepping.
