I think we can always set it, worst case it will be zero.

However, blocking intel_pmu_set_msr altogether is incorrect.  Instead,
you need to:

- list the MSR in msr_based_features_all so that it appears in
KVM_GET_MSR_FEATURE_INDEX_LIST

- return the supported bits in vmx_get_msr_feature

- allow host-initiated writes (as long as they only set supported bits)
of the MSR in intel_pmu_set_msr.

Thanks,

Paolo
