Yes, I should have done that. Sorry...

Some of the tests fail because they aren't appropriate for full virt
domains. These will need to be edited to check to see if VMX is enabled
or not.
Other tests aren't supported yet because the functionality hasn't been
implemented. These too could be SKIP'ed.
And, I imagine there are some that are simple failures.
I need to take a closer look at the tests themselves, now that it's at
least running for vmx guests.
Thanks,
