I'd call it "present", rather than "required".  SDM does so for other
MSRs and it is easier to understand in the condition that returns #GP if
this function is false.

(MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL does not depend only on nested anymore, so
 moving msr_ia32_feature_control from struct nested_vmx to struct
 vcpu_vmx would make sense.)

(This check is used twice and could be given a name too,
 "vmx_mcg_ext_ctl_msr_present()"?)

  (data & ~MCG_EXT_CTL_LMCE_EN)

is a clearer check for reserved bits.

Does hardware throw #GP when FEATURE_CONTROL_LMCE is set without
MCG_LMCE_P?

(We could emulate that by having a mask of valid bits and also use that
 mask in place of vmx_feature_control_msr_required().  I don't think
 there is a reason to have only vmx_feature_control_msr_required() if
 the hardware can #GP on individual bits too.)

Thanks.
