3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@xxxxxxxxx> commit 6cbd7ee10e2842a3d1f9b60abede1c8f3d1f1130 upstream. KVM environments do not support APERF/MPERF MSRs. intel_pstate cannot operate without these registers. The previous validity checks in intel_pstate_msrs_not_valid() are insufficent in nested KVMs. References: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1046317 Signed-off-by: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
