Worse; it will VMX-abort, which shuts down the logical CPU.

That may depend on the processor. On HSX processors with ucode 0x3b, I
find that you can write bits 0, 1, and 2 without a #GP, but bits 63:3
do raise #GP. Nonetheless, the virtual CPU implemented by kvm only
supports bits 0 and 1, regardless of the underlying host support, so
it should raise #GP if bits 63:2 are set.
