Subject: [PATCH v2 2/8] KVM: x86: Use a new flag for branch instructions

From: Binbin Wu <binbin.wu@...ux.intel.com>

Use the new flag X86EMUL_F_BRANCH instead of X86EMUL_F_FETCH in
assign_eip(), since strictly speaking it is not behavior of instruction
fetch.

Another reason is to distinguish instruction fetch and execution of branch
instruction for feature(s) that handle differently on them.

Branch instruction is not data access instruction, so skip checking against
execute-only code segment as instruction fetch.
