Subject: [PATCH 11/11] KVM: SVM: Don't call instruction emulator for invd and wbinvd

There is an intercept for WBINVD and INVD in SVM so we don't
need the instruction emulator. The primary reason is that
the current instruction emulator fails to emulate these
instructions and the rip is not advanced.
