KVM: x86: Emulator does not decode clflush well
Currently, all group15 instructions are decoded as clflush (e.g., mfence, xsave). In addition, the clflush instruction requires no prefix (66/f2/f3) would exist. If prefix exists it may encode a different instruction (e.g., clflushopt). Creating a group for clflush, and different group for each prefix. This has been the case forever, but the next patch needs the cflush group in order to fix a bug introduced in 3.17.
