Yes, I wanted to do the same but I didn't have time right now.  I am
planning to cleanup after the merge window, but if a patch comes soon I
can apply it instead of course. :)

Something like

#define APIC_VALID_REG_MASK(reg)	(1ull << ((reg) >> 4))
#define APIC_VALID_REGS_MASK(first, count) \
	(APIC_VALID_REG_MASK(first) * (1ull << ((count) - 1)))

followed by

	if (offset > 0x3f0 ||
	    !(valid_regs_mask & APIC_VALID_REG_MASK(offset))
