KVM_X86_SET_MCE. Extended machine-check state (MCG_EXT_P) and CMCI are
not simulated.
Maybe I'm missing something, but couldn't this be implemented
entirely within userspace? There's nothing VT/SVM specific about
this. If the issue is setting these MSRs from userspace via
KVM_SET_MSRS isn't enough, perhaps we should add userspace MSR handling.
You also need to inject the MCE.
KVM_SET_EXCEPTION, instead of adding something MCE specific?
