            Bug ID: 116031
           Summary: Many MSR sets are skipped when vcpu type is qemu64.
           Product: Virtualization
           Version: unspecified
    Kernel Version: 4.1.x
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: P1
         Component: kvm
          Assignee: virtualization_kvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
          Reporter: changlimin@xxxxxxx
        Regression: No

1. When vcpu type is qemu64, cpuid[8000_0001_EDX] does not support EXT2_RDTSCP
on default.

2. Because kvm msrs_to_save contains MSR_TSC_AUX, qemu will set MSR_TSC_AUX in
kvm_put_msrs.

3. In kvm, vmx->rdtscp_enabled is false(see 1), so vmx_set_msr set MSR_TSC_AUX
will return error.

4. In __msr_io, the error will break the loop, so msrs after MSR_TSC_AUX will
be skipped.
