Oh, I must have misread it. The unusable bit check is for virtual 8086
mode. However, with this check returning true when the segment is
unusable we still return prematurely as we don't do the other checks.

Userspace does report the address at which a VM fails, it doesn't for
instance show the contents of RIP which is necessary for knowing which
instruction failed, this is at least needed for testing purposes. IIRC
I've seen some trace_kvm_failed_insn() functions somewhere. But I
don't know how to use tracing utilities so I'd be delighted if someone
could point me to some relevant documentation or something.
