Oh well, I thought that was the thing you asked for...

Ok, how about that? It is probably wrong again, but at least it
allows to load the kvm-intel module from within a nested guest
and not having the feature pretend to fail seems the closest
thing to do...

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: VMX: Fake intercept RDPMC

Based on commit fee84b079d5ddee2247b5c1f53162c330c622902 upstream.

  Intercept RDPMC and forward it to the PMU emulation code.

But drop the requirement for the feature being present and instead
of forwarding, cause a GP as if the call had failed.
