SubjectRe: [PATCH v4 2/2] KVM: X86: Add Force Emulation Prefix for "emulate the next instruction"

Looking at it again, we should skip the following check if the call
failed (the sig is undefined in that case).

With that, or even without as we're talking about a feature that has no
place in any production system,
