Thanks Sean. Well, I agree it is obvious.

This line was kept because there are comments for other groups of
control fields(e.g., exit/entry/pin-based/cpu-based controls etc.)
in nested_vmx_setup_ctls_msrs(). If we do not keep the one for secondary
cpu-based controls, we may just delete other comments as well. But
is that really necessary?
