I confirm having the same trouble with kvm. Bisect with the vanilla kernel
gave the following result:

(f438349...|BISECTING)$ git bisect log
# bad: [8d7bff2d72660d9d60aa371ae3d1356bbf329a09] Linux 2.6.29.1
# good: [8e0ee43bc2c3e19db56a4adaa9a9b04ce885cd84] Linux 2.6.29
git bisect start 'v2.6.29.1' 'v2.6.29' '--' 'arch/x86/kvm/' 'virt/kvm/'
# bad: [f438349efb8247cd0c1d453a4131b1f801bf5691] KVM: VMX: Don't allow
uninhibited access to EFER on i386
git bisect bad f438349efb8247cd0c1d453a4131b1f801bf5691

Are the commits splitted more precisely in kvm.git?
