Hi i am also getting the same errors,

When i start he kvm, i was getting the error messages related to wrmsr, 
from a little bit of google i found out these are harmless and the 
workaround suggested was to make the errors to warning. but still i can see 
the warnings coming every time i started the kvm is there an actual fix to 
remove them. or just simply mask these errors. 

I am calling the kvm arguments from  inside a bash script so the redirecting 
the output is not working well. 
my host os is ubuntu 14-04. 

Thanks in Advance 
praveen
