It should be already. The manual says:
The VMFUNC instruction causes an invalid-opcode exception (#UD) if the
âenable VM functionsâ VM-execution controls is 0 1 or the value of EAX
is greater than 63 (only VM functions 0â63 can be enable). Otherwise,
the instruction causes a VM exit if the bit at position EAX is 0 in the
VM-function controls (the selected VM function is not enabled).
