I somewhat fail to see the exact purpose of this patch... QEMU still doesn't
emulate a lot of other instructions, too, so why are we checking now these
QBS instructions? Why not all the others? Why do we need a test to verify
that there is an exception in this case - was there a bug somewhere that
didn't cause an exception in certain circumstances?
Looking at the patch that introduced the QEMU handlers (1eecf41b) I wonder why those two cases were added. From my point of view it makes sense to remove the special handling for those two instructions.
@Christian: Any idea why this was added? Can we remove it?
No idea why it was added (in an always fail way). Yes we could remove it until we need it.
