[PATCH kvm-unit-tests] x86: Check DR6.RTM is writable

From: Nadav Amit
Date: Tue Jul 15 2014 - 10:42:11 EST


Recently discovered bug shows DR6.RTM is fixed to one. The bug is only apparent
when the host emulates the MOV-DR instruction or when the host debugs the
guest kernel. This patch tests whether DR6.RTM is indeed accessible according
to RTM support as reported by cpuid.
