Wanpeng Li 4f5500a634 KVM: X86: Fix operand/address-size during instruction decoding 
[ Upstream commit 3853be2603 ]

Pedro reported:
  During tests that we conducted on KVM, we noticed that executing a "PUSH %ES"
  instruction under KVM produces different results on both memory and the SP
  register depending on whether EPT support is enabled. With EPT the SP is
  reduced by 4 bytes (and the written value is 0-padded) but without EPT support
  it is only reduced by 2 bytes. The difference can be observed when the CS.DB
  field is 1 (32-bit) but not when it's 0 (16-bit).

The internal segment descriptor cache exist even in real/vm8096 mode. The CS.D
also should be respected instead of just default operand/address-size/66H
prefix/67H prefix during instruction decoding. This patch fixes it by also
adjusting operand/address-size according to CS.D.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
