While I agree that this is a fix and a new patch, it also attests what
we do in the nvhe hypervisor to disable tracing while we enter the guest, by
using the Trace filter controls.

That is not true. This is only set when the CPU supports trace filtering.
So, this is more of a capability field for the CPU where the ETM is bound.
Only v8.4+ CPUs implement trace filtering controls.
