Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 0/6] Emulator speedups - avoid initializations where possible

While initializing emulation context structure, kvm memsets to 0 a
number of fields some of which are redundant since they get set
eventually in x86_decode_insn. Cleanup unnecessary initializations
and remove some fields.

This is on top of Paolo's RFC
KVM: x86: speedups for emulator memory accesses
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/1/494

Here are the new realmode.flat numbers with improvement
wrt unpatched kernel -

639 cycles/emulated jump instruction (4.3%)
776 cycles/emulated move instruction (7.5%)
791 cycles/emulated arithmetic instruction (11%)
943 cycles/emulated memory load instruction (5.2%)
948 cycles/emulated memory store instruction (7.6%)
929 cycles/emulated memory RMW instruction (9.0%)

v1 numbers -
639 cycles/emulated jump instruction
786 cycles/emulated move instruction
802 cycles/emulated arithmetic instruction
936 cycles/emulated memory load instruction
970 cycles/emulated memory store instruction
1000 cycles/emulated memory RMW instruction

v2:
All thanks and credit to Paolo!
- 1/6 - no change
- 2/6 - new patch, inercept and check_perm replaced with checks for bits in ctxt->d
- 3/6 - new patch, remove if condition in decode_rm and rearrange bit operations
- 4/6 - remove else conditions from v1 and misc cleanups
- 5/6 - new patch, remove seg_override and related fields and functions
- 6/6 - new patch, remove memopp and move rip_relative to a local variable in
decode_modrm

Core emulator functions all belong in emulator.c,
x86 should have no knowledge of emulator internals

Remove the if conditional - that will help us avoid
an "else initialize to 0" Also, rearrange operators
for slightly better code.

This comment is not accurate anymore after patch 4. Since you're fixing
it, please add another comment saying where the cleared fields start, too.

This is missing "if (ctxt->ad_bytes != 8)".

This is REX.B (preexisting typo), and please leave REX.R here too for
clarity.

Also, the function is "decode_modrm", not "decode_rm" (in the commit
message).

Otherwise the series seems okay from a somewhat cursory review.

Oops, I forgot to change the comment appropriately.
Will fix in next version.
