Hmm, so requiring NRIPS for nested doesn't actually buy us anything. KVM still
has to deal with userspace hiding NRIPS from L1, so unless I'm overlooking something,
the only change would be:

And sadly, because SVM doesn't provide the instruction length if an exit occurs
while vectoring a software interrupt/exception, making NRIPS mandatory doesn't buy
us much either.
I believe the below diff is the total savings (plus the above nested thing) against
this series if NRIPS is mandatory (ignoring the setup code, which is a wash). It
does eliminate the rewind in svm_complete_soft_interrupt() and the funky logic in
svm_update_soft_interrupt_rip(), but that's it AFAICT. The most obnoxious code of
having to unwind EMULTYPE_SKIP when retrieving the next RIP for software int/except
injection doesn't go away :-(
I'm not totally opposed to requiring NRIPS, but I'm not in favor of it either.
