PML in VM depends on "enable PML" in VM-execution control, check this
before vmwrite to PMLADDR, because this field doesn't exist if PML is
disabled in VM-execution control.

No, the field doesn't exist if the CPU doesn't support PML.  Whether or not PML
is enabled in the execution controls is irrelevant.  pml_init() checks for both
secondary execution controls and PML support (with bad indentation).

	if (!(ctrl_cpu_rev[0].clr & CPU_SECONDARY) ||
		!(ctrl_cpu_rev[1].clr & CPU_PML)) {
		printf("\tPML is not supported");
		return VMX_TEST_EXIT;
	}

	pml_log = alloc_page();
	vmcs_write(PMLADDR, (u64)pml_log);
	vmcs_write(GUEST_PML_INDEX, PML_INDEX - 1);
