It seems like the intention here is to read the contents of the ZA
register and only write part of it.  However, there's no actual read of
the ZA register, so it looks like we'll write uninitialized bytes to the
target, for the portion of the raw register where we don't write the
pseudo register.  Add a call to raw_read to fix this.

I don't know how to test this though.
