No. msrs_to_save[] contains *all* MSRs that may be relevant on some
platform. Notice that it already includes AMD-only MSRs (e.g.
MSR_VM_HSAVE_PA) and Intel-only MSRs (e.g. MSR_IA32_BNDCFGS). The MSRs
that are not relevant are filtered out in kvm_init_msr_list().

This list probably should include the AMD equivalents as well, but I
haven't looked into the AMD vPMU yet.
