[PATCH] KVM: Fix mov to/from control register emulation,with r8-r15 as gpr

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Thu Nov 30 2006 - 05:57:02 EST


Use the standrd modrm decoder instead of special casing these instructions.
This fixes mov %rX, %crY with X >= 8 or Y >= 8.

The fix only applies to AMD SVM, as Intel vmx decodes the instruction for us.
It cures the FC5 installer crashing when loading the xor module.
