Description:
See title. If I do a 'modprobe kvm_amd', it is loaded and works correctly.
I have just started using linux-hardened on this machine (Ryzen 5800H laptop), so cannot tell from which version onwards does this happen.
In linux/linux-zen it works automatically.

For the record: kvm_intel works fine on the appropriate machines, so it's only the kvm_amd where the problem is, not something "kvm wide".

Additional info:
* package version(s) - tested with linux-hardened 5.8.10 and .11
* config and/or log files etc. - nothing unusual in dmesg and nothing about kvm

Steps to reproduce:
Boot with linux-hardened and try to launch a QEmu(kvm) virtual machine.
This task depends upon

Due to an uknown reason, autoloading started working after pacman -Syu today. The strange thing is that linux-hardened has no new version, there were amd_ucode and linux{,-zen} updates. It's interesting how this resolved itself :)
