[gentoo-user] what is unchecked MSR access?

[John Covici]

Hi.  I get this error when I boot the computer along with a call
trace, but I can't find anything definite about what the error
actually is caused by and how important it is, and what I should do
about it, if anything.

I can provide the call trace (all in the kernel) if that would give
more information.  Do you get errors like this at boot time?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Well, I am running 5.10.102, and I only get this on boot, so maybe its
not important, but I might comment on the bug and see what they say.
