ACRN hypervisor message: VMX ctrl 0x48b not fully enabled: request 0x18b but get 0x8b

Hi folks,

When booting ACRN on my KBL NUC (NUC7i7DNHE), I see the following messages on the console:

The system seems to be working fine except for the boot time that is quite high, I have no idea yet what is causing the slow boot time and I'm therefore exploring many of the warnings/errors I see in the system so any help to make me understand this one above would be appreciated :-)

Thanks,
Geoffroy
