I booted the guest with -cpu ...,+x2apic (using libvirt), and verified
that qemu command-line does contain x2apic.

There is a log saying this:

Using CPU model
"Nehalem,+rdtscp,+x2apic,+dca,+xtpr,+tm2,+est,+vmx,+ds_cpl,+monitor,+pbe,+tm,+ht,+ss,+acpi,+ds,+vme"
 
Though in the guest dmesg, I still do not see any x2apic logs. I am
missing something obvious here.
