[PATCH 0/3] Correct monitor-mwait emulation as nop

[Nadav Amit <namit@cs.technion.ac.il>]

KVM handles monitor-mwait as nop, but does not check any of the preconditions
for the instructions.  These instructions may generate all kind of exceptions
(#UD, #PF, #GP, #SS). They can also be executed in real-mode.  This patch-set
moves the handling of monitor-mwait to the emulator, to allow their execution
in either real-mode or protected-mode.  It tries to follow the SDM in checking
the preconditions and generating the necassary exceptions.

Thanks for reviewing the patch. Please try it with OS X to make sure it works
properly without generating unnecassary exception.

  KVM: x86: Emulator flag for instruction with no big real mode
  KVM: x86: Emulator support for #UD on CPL>0
  KVM: x86: correct mwait and monitor emulation
