I found PML was broken since below commit:

	commit feda805fe7c4ed9cf78158e73b1218752e3b4314
	Author: Xiao Guangrong <guangrong.xiao@linux.intel.com>
	Date:   Wed Sep 9 14:05:55 2015 +0800

	KVM: VMX: unify SECONDARY_VM_EXEC_CONTROL update

	Unify the update in vmx_cpuid_update()

	Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <guangrong.xiao@linux.intel.com>
	[Rewrite to use vmcs_set_secondary_exec_control. - Paolo]
	Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

The reason is in above commit vmx_cpuid_update calls vmx_secondary_exec_control,
in which currently SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML bit is cleared unconditionally (as
PML is enabled in creating vcpu). Therefore if vcpu_cpuid_update is called after
vcpu is created, PML will be disabled unexpectedly while log-dirty code still
thinks PML is used.

Fix this by clearing SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML in vmx_secondary_exec_control
only when PML is not supported or not enabled (!enable_pml). This is more
reasonable as PML is currently either always enabled or disabled. With this
explicit updating SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML in vmx_enable{disable}_pml is not
needed so also rename vmx_enable{disable}_pml to vmx_create{destroy}_pml_buffer.

v1->v2: Fix this by following Paolo's suggestion. It's better to not to clear
SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML in vmx_secondary_exec_control unconditionally but only
clear it when PML is not supported or enabled.

Hi Paolo,

Thanks for applying! I am really sorry that I forgot to delete the line 
that clears SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML bit in vmx_disable_pml, which is 
renamed to vmx_destroy_pml_buffer now.
It won't impact functionality but to make the function consistent, would 
you also do below? Sorry for such negligence!

         vmx->pml_pg = NULL;

SECONDARY_EXEC_ENABLE_PML);
  }

Thanks,

No problem.  I haven't yet pushed to kvm/next, so I can change this commit.

Thanks for the quick response.
