Ok, how about making all rdmsr* variants indirectly call into a
native_read_msr_safe_reg() helper which takes esi and edi as additional
arguments. There was no room for ebx since paravirt has a PVOP_CALL4
macro which takes the largest number of args - 4 and I am lazy, of
course, to implement a PVOP_CALL5 thing :o)

The wrmsr variants could be done similarly.

Suggestions, comments?
