regs.rflags are designed to set guest rflags, but the current
implementation just use it as host_rflags. For every VM entry, it will
load value set by vmcs_write(GUEST_RFLAGS). Set regs.flags as host
rflags and then enter VM cannot affect VM's rflags, which is the
current implementation.

Besides, if host want to set/get guest's rflags, it just use
vmcs_write/read(GUEST_RFLAGS).
