Existence of PKS is enumerated via CPUID.(EAX=7H,ECX=0):ECX[31]. It is

This list already seems overly long, but I don't think CR4.PKS belongs
here. In volume 3 of the SDM, section 4.4.1, it says:
- If PAE paging would be in use following an execution of MOV to CR0
or MOV to CR4 (see Section 4.1.1) and the instruction is modifying any
of CR0.CD, CR0.NW, CR0.PG, CR4.PAE, CR4.PGE, CR4.PSE, or CR4.SMEP;
then the PDPTEs are loaded from the address in CR3.
CR4.PKS is not in the list of CR4 bits that result in a PDPTE load.
Since it has no effect on PAE paging, I would be surprised if it did
result in a PDPTE load.
Oh, My mistake.

Should MSR_IA32_PKRS be added to the switch statement in
kvm_init_msr_list()? Something like...
case MSR_IA32_PKRS:
if (!kvm_cpu_cap_has(X86_FEATURE_PKRS))
continue;

Yes, this should be added.
