Is there anything in this function preventing the parameter to be
const?

Same as for the title - what code motion is this referring to? In a
code comment you clearly shouldn't be referring to anything the
patch effects, only to its result.

The first sentence of the comment should be brought in line with
this condition.

> index)

Unless there is a particular reason for this uint8_t, please convert to
unsigned int.

Comment style (more below). Should perhaps also get "for now" or
some such added.

Wouldn't this better move ahead of the if()?

> +        if ( old & monitor_ctrlreg_bitmask(VM_EVENT_X86_CR3) )

And then this if() alone would suffice.

Rather than deleting the blank line, perhaps better to insert another
one after your addition?
