x86/umip: Add emulation/spoofing for SLDT and STR instructions
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Add emulation/spoofing of SLDT and STR for both 32- and 64-bit
processes.

Wine users have found a small number of Windows apps using SLDT that
were crashing when run on UMIP-enabled systems.
