What if the default action of the filter is to "deny"? Then only an MSR filter to allow access to x2apic MSRs would make the full filtering logic adhere to the constraints, no?
Also, this really deserves a comment in the API documentation :).
In fact, I think a pure comment in documentation is enough. Just make x2apic && filter on them "undefined behavior".
