We don't need to check the executive VMCS because the feature is not
exposed, but I think that checking that the linked vmcs is not the
current vmcs should still be done.

I agree. I somehow missed that sentence in the Intel SDM. :)
I will add this check to v2 of this patch once review is finished for all patches in series.

Thanks,
