Wanpeng Li da6393cdd8 KVM: X86: Fix warning caused by stale emulation context
Reported by syzkaller:

Commit 4a1e10d5b5 ("KVM: x86: handle hardware breakpoints during emulation())
adds hardware breakpoints check before emulation the instruction and parts of
emulation context initialization, actually we don't have the EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE flag
here and the emulation context will not be reused. Commit c8848cee74 ("KVM: x86:
set ctxt->have_exception in x86_decode_insn()) triggers the warning because it
catches the stale emulation context has #UD, however, it is not during instruction
decoding which should result in EMULATION_FAILED. This patch fixes it by moving
the second part emulation context initialization into init_emulate_ctxt() and
before hardware breakpoints check. The ctxt->ud will be dropped by a follow-up
patch.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
