If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christian Borntraeger commit c0e7bb38c07cbd8269549ee0a0566021a3c729de upstream. For most cases a protection exception in the host (e.g. copy on write or dirty tracking) on the sie instruction will indicate an instruction length of 4. Turns out that there are some corner cases (e.g. runtime instrumentation) where this is not necessarily true and the ILC is unpredictable. Let's replace our 4 byte rewind_pad with 3 byte nops to prepare for all possible ILCs.
