MSR_P6_EVNTSEL0 and MSR_P6_PERFCTR0 are used to probe for the P6 PMU
for older family 6 CPUs, which is also the default in QEMU. Ie. per
default we get the noise of these warnings in dmesg, confusing users
for no reason.
For the reason, see the comment above. The guest may be trying to do
something with the counters and expect them to work. Without the
warning we'd have no idea we are knowningly misemulating something.
