Wasting guest cycles isn't any better, and there are plenty more MSRs that don't
honor report_ignored_msrs, i.e. you'll be playing whack-a-mole.

My first choice would be to delete all MSR printks, but since that's probably not
an option...

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Gate all "unimplemented MSR" prints on
 report_ignored_msrs

Add helpers to print unimplemented MSR accesses and condition all such
prints on report_ignored_msrs, i.e. honor userspace's request to not
print unimplemented MSRs.  Even though vcpu_unimpl() is ratelimited,
printing can still be problematic, e.g. if a print gets stalled when host
userspace is writing MSRs during live migration, an effective stall can
result in very noticeable disruption in the guest.

E.g. the profile below was taken while calling KVM_SET_MSRS on the PMU
counters while the PMU was disabled in KVM.
