When doing x86_emulate_instruction(EMULTYPE_SKIP) interrupt shadow has to
be cleared if and only if the skipping is successful.
There are two immediate issues:
- In SVM skip_emulated_instruction() we are not zapping interrupt shadow
in case kvm_emulate_instruction(EMULTYPE_SKIP) is used to advance RIP
(!nrpip_save).
- In VMX handle_ept_misconfig() when running as a nested hypervisor we
(static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR) case) forget to clear interrupt
shadow.
Note that we intentionally don't handle the case when the skipped
instruction is supposed to prolong the interrupt shadow ("MOV/POP SS") as
skip-emulation of those instructions should not happen under normal
circumstances.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
