Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 2/2] kvm: nVMX: add tracepoint for kvm:kvm_nested_vmrun

Capitalize KVM in the shortlog, i.e. "KVM: nVMX:".

Please reword this so it's a more coherent statement of what the patch does, e.g.

  Call trace_kvm_nested_vmenter() during nested VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME to
  bring parity with nSVM's usage of the tracepoint during nested VMRUN.
