[PATCH 0/2] Emulator intercept frameworks

This patchset defines a framework for intercepting emulated instructions. It
takes a middle ground to the two previous proposals: putting everything in
an arch callback, or putting everything in the emulator. Instead, it marks
each interceptable instruction with an intercept code that it passes to an
arch callback. The intercept code can then be used to index a table that
looks up the correct VMCB bit and exit reason (for the case of SVM).

Joerg, if this looks right to you, please integrate it into your emulator
intercept patchset.
