Well, conceptually it's not necessarily a bad idea, because
in both cases what we're doing is "change the system register
state (PC, ESR_EL1, ELR_EL1 etc) so that the CPU looks like
it's just taken an exception"; but some of what the
TCG code needs to do isn't necessary for KVM and all of it
was not written with the idea of KVM in mind at all...
thanks
