[PATCH] lib/sstep: Fix incorrect return from analyze_instr()

We currently just percolate the return value from analyze_instr()
to the caller of emulate_step(), especially if it is a -1.

For one particular case (opcode = 4) for instructions that
aren't currently emulated, we are returning 'should not be
single-stepped' while we should have returned 0 which says
'did not emulate, may have to single-step'.
