[PATCH][RFC] Emulating real mode with x86_emulate |

set_cr0 is returning 1 though which should increment eip to the next
instruction.
I'm a bit perplexed about my eip now and also why your eip is still 0.
It should be the instruction following the mov cr0.

Hi Anthony,
I don't see any code doing context save/restore like vmx_world_save , vmx_world_restore in the current code for the hyperviser based emulator.
Also the function arch_vmx_do_resume() is called at the time of vcpu schedule, so it is not right to call the vmx_do_emulate() from there.
The code would need vmx_world_save/restore in the code path before returning to vmx_asm_vmexit_handler from vmx_vmexit_handler.
Without that I don't see it can emulate any instructions.
Thanks & Regards,
Nitin
