Sure.

I can remove the format conversion in the kernel, so that user space
tool will do that.

I think that's what you mean.

Since we can't read MSR from user space, this patch is still required
to read only MSR 0x54. Just it will not do any format conversion. So
format conversion will happen in user space tool.
