[PATCH 26/33] KVM: MMU: Fix cmpxchg8b emulation

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Thu Jan 04 2007 - 11:15:44 EST


cmpxchg8b uses edx:eax as the compare operand, not edi:eax.

cmpxchg8b is used by 32-bit pae guests to set page table entries atomically,
and this is emulated touching shadowed guest page tables.

Also, implement it for 32-bit hosts.
