commit e910a53fb4f20aa012e46371ffb4c32c8da259b4 upstream.
If nested tsc scaling is disabled, MSR_AMD64_TSC_RATIO should never have non default value.
Due to way nested tsc scaling support was implmented in qemu, it would set this msr to 0 when nested tsc scaling was disabled. Ignore that value for now, as it causes no harm.
Fixes: 5228eb96a487 ("KVM: x86: nSVM: implement nested TSC scaling") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
