Subject: [PATCH 12/14] KVM: x86: PREFETCH and HINT_NOP should have SrcMem flag

From: Nadav Amit <namit@...technion.ac.il>

The decode phase of the x86 emulator assumes that every instruction with the
ModRM flag, and which can be used with RIP-relative addressing, has either
SrcMem or DstMem.  This is not the case for several instructions - prefetch,
hint-nop and clflush.

Adding SrcMem|NoAccess for prefetch and hint-nop and SrcMem for clflush.

This fixes CVE-2014-8480.
