Hi,
do we clear the x86 direction flag everywhere before and after we run
code not under our control? I'm thinking of option ROM code and initial
asm code as examples.

in v3, cld happens early. We should probably do a cld everytime we
return from the run_address function, which just made that function
non-architecture-independent.
Sigh.

Can we stuff that in arch/x86/ somewhere? The vm86 code is arch specific
anyway. Same for the VSA code.
x86emu should not be affected.
