Some guests use these unhandled MSRs very frequently. This cause dmesg to be populated with lots of aggregated messages on usage of ignored MSRs. As ignore_msrs=true means that the user is well-aware his guest use ignored MSRs, allow to also disable the prints on their usage. An example of such guest is ESXi which tends to access a lot to MSR 0x34 (MSR_SMI_COUNT) very frequently. In addition, we have observed this to cause unnecessary delays to guest execution. Such an example is ESXi which experience networking delays in it's guests (L2 guests) because of these prints (even when prints are rate-limited). This can easily be reproduced by pinging from one L2 guest to another. Once in a while, a peak in ping RTT will be observed. Removing these unhandled MSR prints solves the issue. Because these prints can help diagnose issues with guests, this commit only suppress them by a module parameter instead of removing them from code entirely.
