    kernel - Workaround qemu bug w/ MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES
    
    * qemu allows cpuid report that MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES exists, but
      then fails to implement the MSR.  This causes the kernel to panic
      in early boot.
    
    * Use rdmsr_safe() and report the non-working msr instead of panicing.
    
    * Fixes qemu + DFly on some recent Intel cpus.
