It could be a KVM bug too.  The following features are being enabled:

#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_XSAVES                   0x00100000
#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_SHADOW_VMCS              0x00004000
#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_INVPCID           0x00001000
#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_RDRAND_EXITING           0x00000800
#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_VPID              0x00000020
#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_EPT               0x00000002
#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_DESC                     0x00000004
#define VMX_SECONDARY_EXEC_RDTSCP                   0x00000008

Can you try:

1) running "vmxcap" on the Azure VM

2) adding "-vmx-xsaves,-vmx-shadow-vmcs" to the "-cpu" option and, if it
works, add only one of the two.

3) if it doesn't work, adding "-vmx" to the "-cpu" option.  Either way,
run "x86info -a" in the resulting VM.

Thanks,

Paolo
