Those messages are already pr_debug_ratelimited(). Fix your loglevel to
not see them.

The message 'unhandled rdmsr' is printed with "pr_err_ratelimited" in the 
kernels up to and including 4.9. So it can't be easily silenced, silencing 
it silences any errors.

(and I can't use kernels newer that 4.4 on the host machine because of 
broken hibernation)

And what do we do with upstream patches which we need in older kernels?
