+Certain instructions such as sgdt/sidt call segmented_write_std that
+doesn't propagate access correctly. As such, during userspace induced
+exception, the guest can incorrectly assume that the exception
+happened in the kernel and panic. The emulated write function
+segmented_write does seem to check access correctly.
