Injecting a fake VM-exit on restore is as bad as injecting a fake
VM-exit on save, and I don't think this is a good approach.

IIRC, when I initially posted this set of changes, I neglected to
include the one that set nested_run_pending before prepare_vmcs02(),
and so this bit isn't actually tracked correctly for save/restore at
the moment.
