My current issue on Oracle Linux 7.3 (kernel 4.1.12-61.1.18): I have only one processor or issue “Unsupported PM cap regs version (7)”. Impossible to boot without issue “Unsupported PM cap regs version (7)” and 8 processors.
To see the number of processor : cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep “model name”
My processor is : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2623 v3 @ 3.00GHz
