Applied to kvm-x86 lam (for 6.8)!  I skipped the LASS patches, including patch 2
(the branch targets patch).  I kept the IMPLICIT emulator flag even thought it's
not strictly needed as it's a nice way to document non-existent code.

I massaged a few changelogs and fixed the KVM_X86_OP_OPTIONAL() issue, but
otherwise I don't think I made any code changes (it's been a long day :-) ).
Please take a look to make sure it all looks good.

Thanks!
