The same code which resets it to false inside the handle_invalid_guest_state loop (so you would stop emulating at the same point as you do with this patch).
So (barring any bugs where we fail to set vmx->emulation_required to true) the "vmx->emulation_required = true;" on vmentry error would be dead code.
Advantage would be that failure to set vmx->emulation_required to true would not cause VM-entry failure.
A place where we fail to set vmx->emulation_required to true is quite likely to also be wrong when setting vmx->emulation_required to false. Since this is not something that has ever seen much churn, I think it's better to code it in a way that shows bugs easily. The bugs do not affect the host anyway.
