libvirt (8.0.0-1ubuntu7.16) jammy; urgency=medium

  * Enable MSR kernel module load (LP: #2106791)
    In recent CPUs, some CPU features detection is done by reading
    Model Specific Registers (MSR). To do that, libvirt needs the
    msr kernel module to be loaded.
     - d/p/d/x86-install-modules-load.d-file-to-load-msr-module.patch
     - d/rules : install msr.conf file for libvirt-daemon-system only
       for affected arches (x86)
     - d/libvirt-daemon-system.postinst : trigger the module load

    The conf file is added to libvirt-daemon-system instead of libvirt-common
    in later releases. libvirt-common already breaks/replaces
    libvirt-daemon-system and therefore no further changes to allow upgrades
    are needed.
