KVM: x86: Wrong operand size for far ret
Indeed, Intel SDM specifically states that for the RET instruction "In 64-bit mode, the default operation size of this instruction is the stack-address size, i.e. 64 bits." However, experiments show this is not the case. Here is for example objdump of small 64-bit asm: 4004f1: ca 14 00 lret $0x14 4004f4: 48 cb lretq 4004f6: 48 ca 14 00 lretq $0x14 Therefore, remove the Stack flag from far-ret instructions.
