In a couple of brief threads before, it was made fairly clear that kvm
developers believe CPUs without the virtualisation feature are
essentially obsolete, not just non-current.
I sympathise with that view, now that my laptop has the feature :-)
But it does seem harsh, a rather sudden cut-off point as it was only a
few years ago that the virtualisation feature was not common, and it's
still not available on all x86s.
