commit f66c53b3b94f658590e1012bf6d922f8b7e01bda upstream.

Defer unloading the MMU after a INVPCID until the instruction emulation
has completed, i.e. until after RIP has been updated.

On VMX, this is a benign bug as VMX doesn't touch the MMU when skipping
an emulated instruction.  However, on SVM, if nrip is disabled, the
emulator is used to skip an instruction, which would lead to fireworks
if the emulator were invoked without a valid MMU.
