KVM: VMX: Allow real mode emulation using vm86 with dpl=0
Real mode is always entered from protected mode with dpl=0. Since the dpl doesn't affect execution, and we already override it to 3 in the vmcs (as vmx requires), we can allow execution in that state. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
