Next commits are going introduce support for accessing VMware backdoor ports even though guest's TSS I/O permissions bitmap doesn't allow access. This mimic VMware hypervisor behavior. In order to support this, next commits will change VMX/SVM to intercept #GP which was raised by such access and handle it by calling the x86 emulator to emulate instruction. Since commit "KVM: x86: Always allow access to VMware backdoor I/O ports", the x86 emulator handles access to these I/O ports by not checking these ports against the TSS I/O permission bitmap. However, there could be cases that CPU rasies a #GP on instruction that fails to be disassembled by the x86 emulator (Because of incomplete implementation for example). In those cases, we would like the #GP intercept to just forward #GP as-is to guest as if there was no intercept to begin with. However, current emulator code always queues #UD exception in case emulator fails (including disassembly failures) which is not what is wanted in this flow. This commit addresses this issue by adding a new emulation_type flag that will allow the #GP intercept handler to specify that it wishes to be aware when instruction emulation fails and doesn't want #UD exception to be queued.
