I was able to run some basic nested SVM tests using this patch. Full L2 VM
(Fedora) had some problem to boot after grub loading kernel.

This part is a bit confusing. svm->vmcb01->control contains the control
info from L0 hypervisor to L1 VM. Shouldn't vmcb02->control use the info
from the control info contained in nested_vmcb?

We do save some copying time here, which is always a good thing especially
for nested virt.

Does this mean the original code is missing the following?
