Ok,I have done test with 2.6.32 host kernel, I have the same error than you.

So I think we can remove the patch for now, and maybe reapply it with 3.10 will be the proxmox default kernel.

Really sorry about this :(

I see that kvm_asyncpf (and other kvm_xxxf flags) is a new qemu cpu flag in qemu 1.7 

qemu 1.4 

kvm -cpu ?

Seem that they should be filtered, but it's not the case. 
I have done test with 3.10 kernel without problem (xeon and opteron servers), maybe it's a bug in kvm module in 2.6.32, not filtering the flags 
I'll do test with 2.6.32 host kernel.

this is strange, kvm64 should be compatible with all processor. 

I'll check on redhat bugzilla, because AFAIK, they will enable enforce by default for rhev/ovirt.

We cannot include a patch that breaks VMs using default configuration. 
So is it possible to fix that, or should I remove the patch?
