Ingo, that's because the MSRs already have capability bits. If the
capability bits don't work we have to find out why, not hack around
without understanding it it by using rdmsrl_safe(). Most likely something
more is wrong then and it has to be fixed properly.

I'll work with the reporter to find out what the problem is.
Thanks for bringing that bug to my attention.
