Olders kernel which don't contain kvm.git commit 61a6bd672bda3b9468bf5895c1be085c4e481138 display the following message: kvm: 32301: cpu0 unhandled wrmsr: 0xc0010117 data 0 When kvm_arch_load_regs is called. This is confusing in bug reports. Avoid it by checking whether the host advertises the MSR, similarly to how MSR_STAR is handled.
