  farpokeb is defined as:-

extern __inline__ void farpokeb(unsigned short selector,
         unsigned long offset, unsigned char value) {
  __asm__ __volatile__ ("movw %w0,%%gs\n" " .byte 0x65 \n" " movb %b1,(%k2)"
      : : "g" (selector), "qi" (value), "r" (offset)); }

  and its relatives similarly. Which PC instructions can I prefix `byte 0x65'
to to make them operate on conventional memory? If e.g. I wanted a quick way
to compile `x &= y', where x is in conventional memory, would this work?:-

extern __inline__ void farpokeandb(unsigned short selector,
         unsigned long offset, unsigned char value) {
  __asm__ __volatile__ ("movw %w0,%%gs\n" " .byte 0x65 \n" " andb %b1,(%k2)"
      : : "g" (selector), "qi" (value), "r" (offset)); }
