3.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]> commit 8acb42070ec4c87a9baab5c7bac626030d5bef28 upstream. The x86-64 extended low-byte registers were fetched correctly from reg, but not from mod/rm. This fixes another bug in the boot of RHEL5.9 64-bit, but it is still not enough.
