No.

No, it doesn't.  You cannot disable instructions even if you hide CPUID
bits, so KVM just extends this to MSRs (both native and paravirtual). It
sometimes helps too, for example with a particular guest OS that does
not necessary check CPUID for bits that are always present on Apple
hardware...
