2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Andre Przywara commit 1fdbd48c242db996107f72ae4140ffe8163e26a8 upstream. If the Linux kernel detects an C1E capable AMD processor (K8 RevF and higher), it will access a certain MSR on every attempt to go to halt. Explicitly handle this read and return 0 to let KVM run a Linux guest with the native AMD host CPU propagated to the guest.
