    x86/umip: Identify the STR and SLDT instructions · 6e2a3064
    Ricardo Neri authored
    The STR and SLDT instructions are not emulated by the UMIP code, thus
    there's no functionality in the decoder to identify them.
    
    However, a subsequent commit will introduce a warning about the use
    of all the instructions that UMIP protect/changes, not only those that
    are emulated.
    
    A first step for that is to add the ability to decode/identify them.
    
    Plus, now that STR and SLDT are identified, we need to explicitly avoid
    their emulation (i.e., not rely on successful identification). Group
    together all the cases that we do not want to emulate: STR, SLDT and user
    long mode processes.
