If emulate_invalid_guest_state=false vmx->emulation_required is never actually used, but it ends up to be always set to true since handle_invalid_guest_state(), the only place it is reset back to false, is never called. This, besides been not very clean, makes vmexit and vmentry path to check emulate_invalid_guest_state needlessly. The patch fixes that by keeping emulation_required coherent with emulate_invalid_guest_state setting.
