Similar bug here.

Can we just punt this out of kvm/queue until its been properly reviewed?

Yes, I agree. I have started making some changes and pushed the result to kvm/arch-lbr-for-weijiang.

Most of the MSR handling is rewritten (and untested).

The nested VMX handling was also completely broken so I just removed it. Instead, KVM should be adjusted so that it does not whine.
