Comment 7 for bug 1618473

However if I set the same CPU capabilities as libvirt does (due to <cpu mode='host-model'>)
the kernel Oops'es while trying to use avx2 instructions:

CPUFLAGS="-cpu Nehalem,+invpcid,+erms,+bmi2,+smep,+avx2,+bmi1,+fsgsbase,+abm,+rdtscp,+pdpe1gb,+rdrand,+f16c,+avx,+osxsave,+xsave,+tsc-deadline,+movbe,+x2apic,+dca,+pcid,+pdcm,+xtpr,+fma,+tm2,+est,+smx,+vmx,+ds_cpl,+monitor,+dtes64,+pclmuldq,+pbe,+tm,+ht,+ss,+acpi,+ds,+vme -smp 1,sockets=1,cores=1,threads=1"

qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm \
        -m 4096 $CPUFLAGS \
        -hda xenial-tmp.qcow2 \
        -kernel xenial-server-cloudimg-amd64-vmlinuz-generic \
        -initrd xenial-server-cloudimg-amd64-initrd-generic \
