Hi,

Here is the 4th version of patches to handle Xen/KVM emulate
prefix by x86 instruction decoder.

These patches allow x86 instruction decoder to decode
Xen and KVM emulate prefix correctly, and prohibit kprobes to
probe on it.
Previous version is here;

 https://lkml.kernel.org/r/156773433821.31441.2905951246664148487.stgit@devnote2

In this version, I added 2 patches, [1/4] fixes __ASM_FORM() to
accept macros using __stringify(), [2/4] introduces new
asm/emulate_prefix.h to initialize Xen and KVM emulate prefix
at one place. [3/4] is updated to use new emulate_prefix.h and
fix to add emulate_prefix.h to sync check list.

This series can be applied on -tip master branch which
has merged Josh's objtool/perf sharing common x86 insn
decoder series.

Thank you,
