x86/fred: Reconstruct the #GP context for rejected INT instructions
FRED event delivery does not use the IDT, so the gate DPL check that rejects a user INT n falls to software (Intel FRED specification [1], section 8.3). fred_intx() rejects the same vectors as IDT delivery, but reports a zero error code and the IP after the INT. This breaks the signal ABI. Wine uses the error code to recognize INT 0x2d, so the changed context turns a handled breakpoint into an access violation in Elden Ring. Rewind IP using the instruction length in the augmented SS and synthesize the IDT selector error code, (vector << 3) | 2. Set RF in the saved flags, as the CPU does for a #GP fault. Section 5.2.1 defines the saved vector, instruction length and RF state. The supplied length handles prefixes without reading user memory. Limit the changes to already-rejected software interrupts, preserving the accepted INT3, INT4 and enabled INT80 paths and hardware exceptions. With IA32 emulation disabled, INT 0x80 now reports the same #GP as the DPL 0 gate IDT installs there. The rewound IP also stops fixup_iopl_exception() from inspecting the byte after the INT. Also clear the software event flag. Section 6.2.3 specifies that ERETU with this flag and TF set traps before executing any user instruction. A tracer that suppresses SIGSEGV and resumes with TF set expects the next instruction to run first, as after IRET. The sigreturn path clears the same flag for this reason in prevent_single_step_upon_eretu().
