[PATCH 18/19] KVM: x86 emulator: emulate clflush

[Avi Kivity]

From: Glauber Costa <gcosta@xxxxxxxxxx>

If the guest issues a clflush in a mmio address, the instruction
can trap into the hypervisor. Currently, we do not decode clflush
properly, causing the guest to hang. This patch fixes this emulating
clflush (opcode 0f ae).
