The AMD vol2 reads like this:
Secure Virtual Machine Enable (SVME) Bit. Bit 12. Enables the SVM
extensions.
When this bit is zero, the SVM instructions cause #UD exceptions.
The bit was called MSR_EFER_SVME_MASK in svm.h before, I renamed it in the
attached patch to MSR_EFER_SVME to match the style of the other definitions
in cpu.h.
BTW, triggering the above mentioned #UD is missing in the code...
