    Commit 4a1e10d5 ("KVM: x86: handle hardware breakpoints during emulation())
    adds hardware breakpoints check before emulation the instruction and parts of
    emulation context initialization, actually we don't have the EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE flag
    here and the emulation context will not be reused. Commit c8848cee ("KVM: x86:
    set ctxt->have_exception in x86_decode_insn()) triggers the warning because it
    catches the stale emulation context has #UD, however, it is not during instruction
    decoding which should result in EMULATION_FAILED. This patch fixes it by moving
    the second part emulation context initialization into init_emulate_ctxt() and
    before hardware breakpoints check. The ctxt->ud will be dropped by a follow-up
    patch.
