Yes, look at the end of io_mem_abort(). This is used by the vgic to
complete a read emulation in the kernel.
And actually, this means that we shouldn't have to mess with
handle_exit. Just check for the return value of kvm_handle_mmio_return
in the call sites (including the one in io_mem_abort), and exit if we
need to single-step...
Thoughts?
