the issue is fixed by upgrading to kernel 3.14.20.

Probably it's this patch:

----------------------------------------
commit 2968314094d8db0af32de20ad51349a30ea54a01
Author: Venkatesh Srinivas <venkateshs@google.com>
Date:   Thu Mar 13 12:36:26 2014 -0700

    perf/x86/intel: Use rdmsrl_safe() when initializing RAPL PMU
    
    commit 24223657806a0ebd0ae5c9caaf7b021091889cf2 upstream.
    
    CPUs which should support the RAPL counters according to
    Family/Model/Stepping may still issue #GP when attempting to access
    the RAPL MSRs. This may happen when Linux is running under KVM and
    we are passing-through host F/M/S data, for example. Use rdmsrl_safe
    to first access the RAPL_POWER_UNIT MSR; if this fails, do not
    attempt to use this PMU.
----------------------------------------

Thanks for the backport to 3.14.

Cheers,
Thomas
