Admittedly this is a corner case, but wouldn't the only really nasty bit
of this be to emulate the guest debug exception?

not really sure why this comment is here? Does it really help anyone
reading this specific function or does it just confuse people more?

is this something that can actually happen or should it be a BUG_ON() -
which may even go away once you're doing hacking on this?

"we may want" sounds like we're not sure what we'll be doing here. We
probably want to write something like "If the guest is being debugged we
need to set blah blah blah".

this really confuses me: so you're setting the SS bits in both
registers, and then if we're not single-stepping the guest, you clear
both bits again?
Wouldn't it be much simper to mask off the bits with a 'bic' and then
setting the bits when needed?
Alternatively, we could manage all these registers from C code and just
save/restore them off the VCPU struct.
