0x81 is a read-modify-write instruction - the EPT check
that only allowed read or write and not both has been
relaxed to allow read and write.

On a nested page table fault the hypervisor will:
- fetch the instruction using the guest %rip and %cr3
- decode the instruction in 'struct vie'
- emulate the instruction in host kernel context for local apic accesses
- any other type of mmio access is punted up to user-space (e.g. ioapic)
The decoded instruction is passed as collateral to the user-space process
that is handling the PAGING exit.
The emulation code is fleshed out to include more addressing modes (e.g. SIB)
and more types of operands (e.g. imm8). The source code is unified into a
single file (vmm_instruction_emul.c) that is compiled into vmm.ko as well
as /usr/sbin/bhyve.

In the case where the underlying host had disabled MSI-X via the
"hw.pci.enable_msix" tunable, the ppt_setup_msix() function would fail
and return an error without properly cleaning up. This in turn would
cause a page fault on the next boot of the guest.
Fix this by calling ppt_teardown_msix() in all the error return paths.

sleep, and perform the page allocations with VM_ALLOC_SYSTEM
class. Previously, the allocation was also allowed to completely drain
the reserve of the free pages, being translated to VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT
request class for vm_page_alloc() and similar functions.
Allow the caller of malloc* to request the 'deep drain' semantic by
providing M_USE_RESERVE flag, now translated to VM_ALLOC_INTERRUPT
class. Previously, it resulted in less aggressive VM_ALLOC_SYSTEM
allocation class.
Centralize the translation of the M_* malloc(9) flags in the single
inline function malloc2vm_flags().

%gs, when supported. Note that WRFSBASE and WRGSBASE are not very
useful on FreeBSD right now, because a return from the kernel mode to
userspace reloads the bases specified by the sysarch(2) syscall, most
likely.
Enable the Supervisor Mode Execution Prevention (SMEP) when
supported. Since the loader(8) performs hand-off to the kernel with
the page tables which contradict the SMEP, postpone enabling the SMEP
on BSP until pmap switched for the proper kernel tables.

This implies that the host cpu utilization will now closely mirror the actual

Also, the vcpu mutex now needs to be of type MTX_SPIN since we need to acquire

chunks. This breaks the assumption that the entire memory segment is
contiguously allocated in the host physical address space.
This also paves the way to satisfy the 4KB page allocations by requesting
free pages from the VM subsystem as opposed to hard-partitioning host memory
at boot time.

Add check to vm_gpa2hpa() that the range indicated by [gpa,gpa+len) is all

associated with guest physical memory is contiguous.
In this case vm_malloc() was using vm_gpa2hpa() to indirectly infer whether
or not the address range had already been allocated.
Replace this instead with an explicit API 'vm_gpa_available()' that returns
TRUE if a page is available for allocation in guest physical address space.
