[PATCH 02/38] KVM: VMX: Remove emulation failure report

[Avi Kivity]

From: Sheng Yang <sheng@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

As Avi noted:

>There are two problems with the kernel failure report.  First, it
>doesn't report enough data - registers, surrounding instructions, etc.
>that are needed to explain what is going on.  Second, it can flood
>dmesg, which is a pretty bad thing to do.

So we remove the emulation failure report in handle_invalid_guest_state(),
and would inspected the guest using userspace tool in the future.
