It's starting to seem like print_mem and print_stack should be called

The issue is that ctx (vcpu_guest_context_any_t) does not exist
in main and is needed by map_page() (called from these).

dump_ctx() is the routine that gets this and guest_word_size,
guest_protected_mode, and ctxt_word_size.

And so yes, this part of dump_ctx() could be moved to main
and/or ctx could be made global.

Let me know if I should rework all this.
It does sound like some refactoring might be in order. Lets get this
series put to bed first though.

Ok.

You can reuse mem_addr here, can't you?



Nope.  If both -d and -m are specified, then both are done.
Is that useful?



Maybe.  I did use it to show the difference between 16 bit and 32 bit output 
(also v8 stuff).  Not clear I would ever use both.
