This patchset defines a framework for intercepting emulated instructions. It takes a middle ground to the two previous proposals: putting everything in an arch callback, or putting everything in the emulator. Instead, it marks each interceptable instruction with an intercept code that it passes to an arch callback. The intercept code can then be used to index a table that looks up the correct VMCB bit and exit reason (for the case of SVM).
Joerg, if this looks right to you, please integrate it into your emulator intercept patchset.
