PATCH 2/2 KVM: x86: Preserve guest single-stepping on register

In reply to a message not in the archive

Give user space more flexibility /wrt its IOCTL order. So far updating the rflags via KVM_SET_REGS ignored potentially set single-step flags. Now they will be kept.

I think we need same on popf instruction emulation.

Hmmmm, good point. Mind reverting 2/2 and applying this one instead?

KVM: x86: Rework guest single-step flag injection and filtering

Push TF and RF injection and filtering on guest single-stepping into the vender get/set_rflags callbacks. This makes the whole mechanism more robust /wrt user space IOTCTL order and instruction emulations.

This code is duplicated in vmx. How about kvm_[gs]et_rflags to contain it?
