Maybe we should unexecute the software interrupt instruction on Intel and get the same effect.

We don't need to unexecute anything. We get exit with RIP pointing to
the offending instruction. The right thing on VMX to do is to inject
software interrupt with correct instruction length. Processor will do
the rest. Remind me please why do we try to find problems where there is
none? We will do right thing and fix migration code to do right thing.


I don't want the migration protocol to encode vendor specific information. The architectural state is complicated enough, we don't want microarchitectural state as well.
