Hi Glenn,

Thanks for reviewing the patches in the series !

I wouldn't consider this a bug since this particular patch does not fix 
any wrong or missing behavior from a specific commit. The new 
modifications to the ICBT instruction in the recent ISA versions were 
simply not incorporated in the qemu code. So no previous commit is truly 
at fault here.

Tasmiya had observed certain HTX workload being run in TCG env caused 
illegal instruction error, due to ICBT not supported as expected in the 
latest ISA; which brought this to our attention.

Regards,
Chinmay
