Per spec:"IA32_LBR_CTL.LBREn is saved and cleared on #SMI, and restored on RSM. On a warm reset, all LBR MSRs, including IA32_LBR_DEPTH, have their values preserved. However, IA32_LBR_CTL.LBREn is cleared to 0, disabling LBRs." So clear Arch LBREn bit on #SMI and restore it on RSM manully, also clear the bit when guest does warm reset.
