This patch replaces drop_interrupt_shadow with the more
general set_interrupt_shadow, that can either drop or raise
it, depending on its parameter.

+ u32 (*get_interrupt_shadow)(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu);

Would be better to make these symmetric in their mask types.

Need to clear this unconditionally, otherwise 'sti; mov ss' will set both flags.

I suggest we deal with the case where both are set. One day we'll live migrate this state, and if we come from an AMD host, we might get this state.
