The emulator mishandles LEA with register source operand. Even though such LEA is illegal, it can be encoded and fed to CPU. In which case real hardware throws #UD. The emulator, instead, returns address of x86_emulate_ctxt._regs. This info leak hurts host's kASLR. Tell the decoder that illegal LEA is not to be emulated.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
