Which version (hash) of kvm-unit-tests are you using? All tests up to
307621765a are running fine here, but since a0e30e712d not much is
completing successfully anymore:

paging enabled
cr0 = 80010011
cr3 = 7fff000
cr4 = 20
PASS: test vmxon with FEATURE_CONTROL cleared
PASS: test vmxon without FEATURE_CONTROL lock
PASS: test enable VMX in FEATURE_CONTROL
PASS: test FEATURE_CONTROL lock bit
PASS: test vmxon
FAIL: test vmptrld
PASS: test vmclear
init_vmcs : make_vmcs_current error
FAIL: test vmptrst
init_vmcs : make_vmcs_current error
vmx_run : vmlaunch failed.
FAIL: test vmlaunch
