Your right - it's sloppily worded how about:

 /*
  * We may be single-stepping an emulated instruction. If the emulation
  * has been completed in-kernel we can return to userspace with a
  * KVM_EXIT_DEBUG, otherwise the userspace needs to complete it's
  * emulation first.
  */

For x86 there is also IO emulation but in principle anything that might
be passed off to userspace to be completed should be done first.

Yes, I'll fix it.
