When we're unable to skip instruction with kvm_emulate_instruction() we
will not advance RIP and most likely the guest will get stuck as
consequitive attempts to execute the same instruction will likely result
in the same behavior.
As we're not supposed to see these messages under normal conditions, switch
to pr_err_once().
