[PATCH v2 7/8] KVM: x86: Bug the VM if the emulator generates a bogus exception vector

[Sean Christopherson]

Bug the VM if KVM's emulator attempts to inject a bogus exception vector.
The guest is likely doomed even if KVM continues on, and propagating a
bad vector to the rest of KVM runs the risk of breaking other assumptions
in KVM and thus triggering a more egregious bug.

All existing users of emulate_exception() have hardcoded vector numbers
(__load_segment_descriptor() uses a few different vectors, but they're
all hardcoded), and future users are likely to follow suit, i.e. the
change to emulate_exception() is a glorified nop.

As for the ctxt->exception.vector check in x86_emulate_insn(), the few
known times the WARN has been triggered in the past is when the field was
not set when synthesizing a fault, i.e. for all intents and purposes the
check protects against consumption of uninitialized data.
