I confirm that this issue arises even with kernels 3.8.0-27 and 3.10 (tryied on 
Ubuntu): dmesg shows the message "kvm: disabled by bios"
I don't know if Red Hat has the 'kvm-ok' executable, BTW in Ubuntu it says that 
the machine is capable of running KVM, but KVM is disable. This is the output:

# kvm-ok 
INFO: /dev/kvm does not exist
HINT:   sudo modprobe kvm_amd
INFO: Your CPU supports KVM extensions
INFO: KVM (svm) is disabled by your BIOS
HINT: Enter your BIOS setup and enable Virtualization Technology (VT),
      and then hard poweroff/poweron your system
KVM acceleration can NOT be used

*********** MASS BUG UPDATE **************

We apologize for the inconvenience.  There is a large number of bugs to
go through and several of them have gone stale.  Due to this, we are
doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 18 kernel bugs.

Fedora 18 has now been rebased to 3.11.4-101.fc18.  Please test this
kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved
or if it is still present with the newer kernel.

If you have moved on to Fedora 19, and are still experiencing this
issue, please change the version to Fedora 19.

If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for
those.

It has been over a month since we asked you to test the 3.11 kernel
updates and let us know if your issue has been resolved or is still a
problem. When this happened, the bug was set to needinfo.  Because the
needinfo is still set, we assume either this is no longer a problem, or
you cannot provide additional information to help us resolve the issue.
As a result we are closing with insufficient data. If this is still a
problem, we apologize, feel free to reopen the bug and provide more
information so that we can work towards a resolution

If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for
those.

Title:
  Cannot load kvm_amd module - (says disabled by bios)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in linux package in Fedora:
  Expired

Bug description:
  - Firt of all I would like to mention that this bug as been also raised for 
Fedora 18.
  Here is the link: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=978608

  - I am running Ubuntu Raring (with the kernel 3.8.0-27-generic), but
  NOTE that I've also tried the new kernel 3.10 from Ubuntu Saucy.

  - It happens with the following CPU: AMD E-350D

  - The kvm-ok executable says that the system is capable of running
  KVM, but it also says the it's disabled in the BIOS.

  - This is the out put of kvm-ok:
  # kvm-ok
  INFO: /dev/kvm does not exist
  HINT:   sudo modprobe kvm_amd
  INFO: Your CPU supports KVM extensions
  INFO: KVM (svm) is disabled by your BIOS
  HINT: Enter your BIOS setup and enable Virtualization Technology (VT),
        and then hard poweroff/poweron your system
  KVM acceleration can NOT be used

  - This is what modprobe kvm-amd says:
  # modprobe kvm-amd
  ERROR: could not insert 'kvm_amd': Operation not supported
  root@yasna:~# dmesg |tail -n1
  [ 2542.263745] kvm: disabled by bios
