Will clear TraceEn bit in handle_vmon() function.

Will add it in next version. This is use for live migration, is that right?

If use XSAVES and XRSTORS for context switch.
1. Before kvm_load_guest_fpu(vcpu), we need to save host RTIT_CTL, disable PT and restore the value of "vmx->pt_desc.guest.ctl" to GUEST_IA32_RTIT_CTL. Is that right?
2. After VM-exit (step out from kvm_x86_ops->run(vcpu)), we need to save the status of GUEST_IA32_RTIT_CTL . TRACEEN=0 and others MSRs are still in guest status. Where to enable PT if in host-guest mode. I think we should enable PT after vm-exit but it may cause #GP. " If XRSTORS would restore (or initialize) PT state and IA32_RTIT_CTL.TraceEn = 1, the instruction causes a general-protection exception. SDM 13.5.6". if enable after kvm_put_guest_fpu() I think it too late.)
