Hello! If AVIC is enabled, I'm usually getting one warning like the one below a few minutes after the VM has been started. What does it mean? There isn't any problem with that VM - it's just working as expected. If AVIC is disabled, the warning doesn't come up and the VM works fine, too. Base is a Ryzen system (RMA'd CPU w/o gcc segfaults meanwhile and X370 chipset (ASUS Prime X370-PRO with Bios 0810)). Linux is 4.9.48.
