Yes.

Not at this point. The other code does that inside
kvmppc_handle_exit_hv, which is called from kvmhv_run_single_vcpu. And
since we're changing the interrupt, I cannot load the last instruction
at kvmppc_handle_nested_exit because at that point this is still an HFU.

Unless I do it anyway at the HFU handler and put a comment explaining
the situation.

Or I could check for failure and clear vcpu->arch.emul_inst and
therefore also hr->heir if we couldn't load the instruction.

Ah of course, thanks.
