Yes, Opportunistically did it as said in commit log :-D

Then the code nested_vmx_enter_non_root_mode() would look like:

if (kvm_cet_supported() && !vmx->nested.nested_run_pending &&
    !(vmcs12->vm_entry_controls & VM_ENTRY_LOAD_CET_STATE)) {
	...
    }

I have another concern now, if vm_entry_controls.load_cet_state == false, and L1
updated vmcs fields, so the latest states are in vmcs12, but they cannot
be synced to vmcs02 because in prepare_vmcs02_rare():

if (kvm_cet_supported() && vmx->nested.nested_run_pending &&
    (vmcs12->vm_entry_controls & VM_ENTRY_LOAD_CET_STATE)) {
	...
    }

so L2 got stale status. IMO, L1 guest sets vm_entry_controls.load_cet_state == false
should be rare case. We event can igore this case :-)

So for MPX and DEBUGCTL, is it worth some separate fix patch?

Exactly, should it be fixed by separate patch or leave it as is?

Sure, will fix them by separate patch. Thanks for review!
