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.
