Currently we sync registers back and forth before/after exiting
to userspace for IO, but during IO device model shouldn't need to
read/write the registers, so we can as well skip those sync points. The
only exaception is broken vmware backdor interface. The new code sync
registers content during IO only if registers are read from/written to
by userspace in the middle of the IO operation and this almost never
happens in practise.

When the emulation of vmload or vmsave fails because the
guest passed an unsupported physical address it gets an #GP
with rip pointing to the instruction after vmsave/vmload.

The calculation of the tsc_delta value to ensure a
forward-going tsc for the guest is a function of the
host-tsc. This works as long as the guests tsc_khz is equal
to the hosts tsc_khz. With tsc-scaling hardware support this
is not longer true and the tsc_delta needs to be calculated
using guest_tsc values.

When running in guest mode, certain instructions can be intercepted by
hardware. This also holds for nested guests running on emulated
virtualization hardware, in particular instructions emulated by kvm
itself.
This patch adds a framework for intercepting instructions. If an
instruction is marked for interception, and if we're running in guest
mode, a callback is called to check whether an intercept is needed or
not. The callback is called at three points in time: immediately after
beginning execution, after checking privilge exceptions, and after
checking memory exception. This suits the different interception points
defined for different instructions and for the various virtualization
instruction sets.
In addition, a new X86EMUL_INTERCEPT is defined, which any callback or
memory access may define, allowing the more complicated intercepts to be
implemented in existing callbacks.

Most SIMD instructions use the 66/f2/f3 prefixes to distinguish between
different variants of the same instruction. Usually the encoding is quite
regular, but in some cases (including non-SIMD instructions) the prefixes
generate very different instructions. Examples include XCHG/PAUSE,
MOVQ/MOVDQA/MOVDQU, and MOVBE/CRC32.
Allow the emulator to handle these special cases by splitting such opcodes
into groups, with different decode flags and execution functions for different
prefixes.

Currently we store a rep prefix as 1 or 2 depending on whether it is a REPE or

original opcode to simplify things further on.

Since sse instructions can issue 16-byte mmios, we need to support them. We
can't increase the kvm_run mmio buffer size to 16 bytes without breaking
compatibility, so instead we break the large mmios into two smaller 8-byte
ones. Since the bus is 64-bit we aren't breaking any atomicity guarantees.

Use vmx_set_nmi_mask() instead of open-coding management of
the hardware bit and the software hint (nmi_known_unmasked).
There's a slight change of behaviour when running without
hardware virtual NMI support - we now clear the NMI mask if
NMI delivery faulted in that case as well. This improves
emulation accuracy.
