How to enable Pause Loop Exiting (PLE)?

Hi,

I am using this tool for querying VMX capabilities.

http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=blob_plain;f=scripts/kvm/vmxcap;hb=HEAD

And it shows as below that pause-loop exiting is not enabled. My kernel is 3.14.

secondary processor-based controls
  Virtualize APIC accesses                 yes
  Enable EPT                               yes
  Descriptor-table exiting                 yes
  Enable RDTSCP                            yes
  Virtualize x2APIC mode                   yes
  Enable VPID                              yes
  WBINVD exiting                           yes
  Unrestricted guest                       no
  APIC register emulation                  no
  Virtual interrupt delivery               no
  PAUSE-loop exiting                       no
  RDRAND exiting                           no
  Enable INVPCID                           no
  Enable VM functions                      no
  VMCS shadowing                           no
  EPT-violation #VE                        no

What shall I do if I wish to enable PLE? I have also tried this:

linux-vsvo:~/code/test # rmmod kvm-intel
linux-vsvo:~/code/test # modprobe kvm-intel ple_gap=128
linux-vsvo:~/code/test # cat /sys//module/kvm_intel/parameters/ple_gap
0

But, it does not change the ple_gap, and also, the above script still
says PLE is disabled.
