No, it doesn't.  I'll rewrite it as

	/*
	 * This cannot happen unless the guest is playing TOCTTOU games,
	 * because we would have gotten a nested page fault on table_gfn
	 * instead.  If this happens, the exit qualification / exit info
	 * field will incorrectly have "guest page access" as the
	 * nested page fault's cause, instead of "guest page structure
	 * access".
	 */

I think so, but that's why I CCed you. :)

It would need to read/write to *L1* (that's where the VMCB's IOIO map
lies), which could result into a regular page fault injected into L1.
