KVM doesn't work at all unless you have these extensions. However you can still happen to run the /usr/bin/qemu-kvm on these machines - it's just that it falls back to using QEMU (ie. pure software) virtualization. All new Intel & AMD processors support this anyway. The situation is similar to 3D accelerated graphics cards circa 1996 -- not everyone's got one now, but within a few years even your mobile phone will have it.
