It seems the current implementation only supports a CPU if dmesg displays
"VMX/EPT", not just "VMX" (the vmmopen() function only succeeds if EPT
support is present).

As for if or when this will change, I cannot say.

Keep in mind that we're not at release yet and that you're testing an
intermediate state of things. I'd expect that eventually this will either be
made to work or that vmm will be prevented from attaching on such CPUs.
