This is a bit mask for RTIT_CTL MSR and it will make & with the value of RTIT_CLT from guest.
The reserved bits will be 1 in this bit mask and the setable bits are 0.

What about like this?
/* If CPUID.(EAX=14H,ECX=0):EBX[0]=1 CR3Filter can be set otherwise will inject an #GP */

Following the description in SDM, the default value of this bit (RTIT_CTL.ToPA) is 0. So I think we don't need to touch this bit when TOPA is not supported.

It depend on the CPUID information virtualization in guest. I think it can works (e.g. we can pass through the PCI card to guest and stream the trace to a MMIO address).

Yes, you are right.
