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.

Great - saves me from submitting one of my follow-up patches.
