-From: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@citrix.com>
-Subject: hvm/fep: Allow testing of instructions crossing the -1 -> 0 virtual boundary
-
-The Force Emulation Prefix is named to follow its PV counterpart for cpuid or
-rdtsc, but isn't really an instruction prefix. It behaves as a break-out into
-Xen, with the purpose of emulating the next instruction in the current state.
-
-It is important to be able to test legal situations which occur in real
-hardware, including instruction which cross certain boundaries, and
-instructions starting at 0.
