    x86/emul: Correct the return value handling of VMFUNC
    
    The bracketing of x86_emulate() calling the ops->vmfunc() hook is wrong with
    respect to the assignment to rc, which can trip the new assertions in
    x86_emulate_wrapper().
    
    The hvmemul_vmfunc() hook should only raise #UD if X86EMUL_EXCEPTION is
    returned.  This is only a latent bug at the moment.
