It should be working in HVM guest. See, for example:

Checking if this processor honours the WP bit even in supervisor mode...
Ok.
Calibrating delay using timer specific routine.. 4803.94 BogoMIPS
(lpj=9607882)

That shows it honours CR0.WP=1, which is all Linux cares about. Linux never sets CR0.WP=0 so that case is probably not tested.
