Is there a reason this can't be handled in svm? E.g. can KVM be reworked
to effectively split the emulation logic so that it's a bug for KVM to end
up trying to modify RIP?

Also, patch 06 modifies SVM's skip_emulated_instruction() to skip the RIP
update, but keeps the "svm_set_interrupt_shadow(vcpu, 0)" logic. Seems like
either that change or this one is wrong.
