This probably is a Hyper-V MSR, but I don't see how it expects it
to be present in real hardware. Are you sure this is really needed?
Well hyper-v just crashes/reboots if it get a #gp on that msr, so I
suppose yes.
This is suspicious. It won't get this MSR on real hardware.
Maybe this was with cpuid.hypervisor enabled?
Before I sent out this patch I rechecked if the 0x4 msr is really
required because it seemed awkward to me too and it did, but I can
recheck for a 3rd time :)
