Subject: [PATCH v11 18/23] KVM: x86: Don't emulate instructions guarded by CET

From: Yang Weijiang <weijiang.yang@...el.com>

Don't emulate the branch instructions, e.g., CALL/RET/JMP etc., when CET
is active in guest, return KVM_INTERNAL_ERROR_EMULATION to userspace to
handle it.

KVM doesn't emulate CPU behaviors to check CET protected stuffs while
emulating guest instructions, instead it stops emulation on detecting
the instructions in process are CET protected. By doing so, it can avoid
generating bogus #CP in guest and preventing CET protected execution flow
subversion from guest side.
