Thanks for this analysis, it looks like this is dependent on some
particular configuration; here's clang+defconfig+CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=y:
0x000000000000528f <+127>: pushq $0x18
0x0000000000005291 <+129>: push %rcx
0x0000000000005292 <+130>: pushfq
0x0000000000005293 <+131>: pushq $0x10
0x0000000000005295 <+133>: callq *%rax
