Intentional or not (I forgot :-), GUEST_IA32_RTIT_CTL is supported/used
by KVM since

commit f99e3daf94ff35dd4a878d32ff66e1fd35223ad6

KVM: x86: Add Intel PT virtualization work mode

...

commit bf8c55d8dc094c85a3f98cd302a4dddb720dd63f
Author: Chao Peng <chao.p.peng@linux.intel.com>
Date: Wed Oct 24 16:05:14 2018 +0800

KVM: x86: Implement Intel PT MSRs read/write emulation

but there's no corresponding field in eVMCS. It would probably be better
to remove "Currently unsupported in KVM:" line leaving

"GUEST_IA32_RTIT_CTL = 0x00002814"

in place.
