+Architectures: x86

+This capability indicates that guest using memory monotoring instructions
+(MWAIT/MWAITX) to stop the virtual CPU will not cause a VM exit. As such time
+spent while virtual CPU is halted in this way will then be accounted for as
+guest running time on the host (as opposed to e.g. HLT).
