KVM: x86: PREFETCH and HINT_NOP should have SrcMem flag
The decode phase of the x86 emulator assumes that every instruction with the ModRM flag, and which can be used with RIP-relative addressing, has either SrcMem or DstMem. This is not the case for several instructions - prefetch, hint-nop and clflush. Adding SrcMem|NoAccess for prefetch and hint-nop and SrcMem for clflush. This fixes CVE-2014-8480.
