Subject: [PATCH 09/54] KVM: x86 emulator: Make a distinction between repeat prefixes F3 and F2

From: Guillaume Thouvenin <guillaume.thouvenin@....bull.net>

cmps and scas instructions accept repeat prefixes F3 and F2. So in
order to emulate those prefixed instructions we need to be able to know
if prefixes are REP/REPE/REPZ or REPNE/REPNZ. Currently kvm doesn't make
this distinction. This patch introduces this distinction.
