Hi Jim&Wanpeng:
         Thanks for your help.

Yes, you are right. I need to disable unrestricted_guest to reproduce the issue.

I find this is pop instruction emulation issue. According "SDM VOL2,
chapter INSTRUCTION
SET REFERENCE. POP—Pop a Value from the Stack"

Protected Mode Exceptions
#GP(0) If attempt is made to load SS register with NULL segment selector.

This test case hits it but current code doesn't check such case.
The following patch can fix the issue.
