I think I understand what you mean.
When a normal NMI is injected, we do have to intercept IRET because this is how
we know that NMI done executing.
But if NMI becames masked then it can be either if:
1. We are already in NMI, so masking it is essintially NOP, so no need to intercept
IRET since it is already intercepted.
2. We are not in NMI, then we don't need to intercept IRET, since its interception
is not needed to track that NMI is over, but only needed to detect NMI window
(IRET can be used without a paired NMI to unblock NMIs, which is IMHO a very wrong
x86 design decision, but the ship sailed long ago), and so we can intercept IRET
only when we request an actual NMI window.
Makes sense and I'll send a patch to do it.

Or not have any hepler at all maybe, since it is only done once? I don't know
I just wanted to not change the original patches too much, I only changed
the minimum to make it work.

OK, this is one of the ways to do it, makes sense overall.
I actualy wanted to do something like that but opted to not touch
the original code too much, but only what I needed. I can do this
in a next version.
