The length of the facility list accessed when interpretively executing
STFLE is the same as the hosts facility list (in case of format-0)
When shadowing, copy only those bytes.
The memory following the facility list need not be accessible, in which
case we'd wrongly inject a validity intercept.

Possible races? Should have to use an atomic?

No access to documentation, but sounds plausible.
