The mechanism to save/restore MSRs during S3 suspend/resume checks for
the MSR validity during suspend, and only restores the MSR if its a
valid MSR. This is not optimal, as an invalid MSR will unnecessarily
throw an exception for every suspend cycle. The more invalid MSRs,
higher the impact will be.
Check and save the MSR validity at setup. This ensures that only valid
MSRs that are guaranteed to not throw an exception will be attempted
during suspend.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
