The last patch hardens SVM against one of the bugs introduced in the
FLUSH_L1D enabling.

I'll post KUT patches tomorrow. I have the tests written (and they found
bugs in my code, :shocked-pikachu:), just need to write the changelogs.
Wanted to get this out sooner than later as I'm guessing I'm not the only
one whose VMs won't boot on Intel CPUs...

Hi Sean,

did you post them?
