kvm: x86: Check memopp before dereference (CVE-2016-8630)

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1642572

commit d9092f52 upstream.

Commit 41061cdb ("KVM: emulate: do not initialize memopp") removes a
check for non-NULL under incorrect assumptions. An undefined instruction
with a ModR/M byte with Mod=0 and R/M-5 (e.g. 0xc7 0x15) will attempt
to dereference a null pointer here.

Fixes: 41061cdb
