KVM: VMX: handle IO when emulation is due to #GP in real mode.
With emulate_invalid_guest_state=0 if a vcpu is in real mode VMX can
enter the vcpu with smaller segment limit than guest configured. If the
guest tries to access pass this limit it will get #GP at which point
instruction will be emulated with correct segment limit applied. If
during the emulation IO is detected it is not handled correctly. Vcpu
thread should exit to userspace to serve the IO, but it returns to the
guest instead. Since emulation is not completed till userspace completes
the IO the faulty instruction is re-executed ad infinitum.
The patch fixes that by exiting to userspace if IO happens during
instruction emulation.
