Actually, this seems to work with the patch below based on whether you
have "+movbe" in the -cpu option or not.
Anyway, here's the second version with hopefully all comments and
suggestions addressed.
Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] kvm: Emulate MOVBE
This basically came from the need to be able to boot 32-bit Atom SMP
guests on an AMD host, i.e. host which doesn't support MOVBE. As a
matter of fact, qemu has since recently received MOVBE support but we
cannot share that with kvm emulation and thus we have to do this in the
host.
We piggyback on the #UD path and emulate the MOVBE functionality. With
it, an 8-core SMP guest boots in under 6 seconds.
Also, requesting MOVBE emulation needs to happen explicitly to work,
i.e. qemu -cpu n270,+movbe...
