For this I was expecting a v2 or a rationale why not. >> New msr_* fields would be candidates for X86CPU, but there's already one >> in CPUX86State. :/ >> > Is this NAK? No, it was more an implicit question of whether Paolo had considered a different placement? Since there is a uint64_t msr_ia32_misc_enable visible as precedent, I was thinking it would be better for consistency to do such movements as follow-up, if at all. However checking on that now, I do not have any msr_* there in my repo, and it is after CPU_COMMON, thus not reset - Paolo, what do you think?
