Since we use cpu mode='host-model' the guest kernel is probing for different CPU registers. Some of the registers are not (yet) implemented in Qemu/KVM and therefore generate the following warnings in the hosts kernel log when booting a VM:

This is not an issue, see for example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1208540
If the warnings should be suppressed, use:echo 1 > /sys/module/kvm/parameters/ignore_msrs
