Please post patches separately, not as attachments to a single email. 
See Documentation/SubmittingPatches.

You need to start qemu with -cpu ...,vendor=blah to preserve the vendor
ID after live migration.

The emulator is written to be independent of the rest of kvm, using
emul_to_vcpu() undoes that.  If you need access to more vpcu internals,
add more function pointers to struct x86_emulate_ops.

'return' on its own line; don't use C++ style comments.  Use tabs for
indents.  Please read Documentation/CodingStyle.

Please move all these checks into a separate function, returning whether to allow emulation or #UD.
