[PATCH 1/3] x86: allow kernel exception fixup for divide errors (#DE)
From: Avi Kivity
Date: Tue Aug 24 2010 - 08:48:05 EST
KVM wants to emulate the DIV and IDIV instructions by executing them natively;
this can cause a #DE to be raised.
Allow the exception handling mechanism to process #DE exceptions so KVM can
catch and process them.
