There's always a chance we're unable to read a guest instruction. The guest
could have its TLB mapped execute-, but not readable, something odd happens
and our TLB gets flushed. So it's a good idea to be prepared for that case
and have a fallback that allows us to fix things up in that case.
Add fixup code that keeps guest code from potentially crashing our host kernel.

v1 -> v2:
- fix whitespace
- use explicit preempt counts
v2 -> v3:
- fix whitespace (for real)
