Given the rarity of your machine I'm currently leaning towards _not_ reverting the change. I'll check another non-Xeon Core 2 tomorrow that is from December 2008 (IIRC). If that one also lacks vNMI, or if I get other reports, I suppose I will have to reconsider that.
afraid I've the same issue with 4.12, kvm_intel doesn't load and won't (but does on 4.11) on my Dell XPS M1210 with a Core 2 Duo T7200 from April 2007.
cpuinfo and vmxcap output attached Thanks, Niall
