This is a interesting feature. If it happens, i will just drop the shadow pages
and retry these instructions directly.

Note it's a little dangerous. If the guest uses a non-page-table modifying instruction on the PDE that points to the instruction, then we will unmap the instruction and go to an infinite loop.

Maybe it's better to emulate if we can't find a fix for that.

One way would be to emulate every 20 instructions; this breaks us out of the loop but reduces costly emulations to 5%.
