Please use PT_CONCEAL instead of PT_SUPPRESS_PIP, to better match the
SDM (for both vmexit and vmentry controls).

Why is this (and the similar bit-clear operation in vmx_vmentry_control)
needed only for !enable_ept?

Shouldn't it be like

if (pt_mode == PT_MODE_SYSTEM) {
vmexit_control &= ~VM_EXIT_PT_SUPPRESS_PIP;
vmexit_control &= ~VM_EXIT_CLEAR_IA32_RTIT_CTL;
}

and

if (pt_mode == PT_MODE_SYSTEM) {
vmentry_control &= ~VM_ENTRY_PT_SUPPRESS_PIP;
vmentry_control &= ~VM_ENTRY_LOAD_IA32_RTIT_CTL;
}

Thanks,

Paolo
