I was actually meaning to ask that "VMX only" should somehow be mentioned here,
but then I noticed this is an arch-independent location. I'm not quite sure we
want it like this (just yet).

Blank line ahead of the new #ifdef?

#ifdef inside the function body please, to reduce redundancy and to reduce the
risk of overlooking multiple places which need editing (when e.g. function
parameters change).

Imo such an #ifdef would better enclose the comment as well.

Use IS_ENABLED() together with a function declaration (but no definition) in the
VMTRACE=n case?
