nested_run_pending is also checked in
nested_vmx_check_vmentry_postreqs
(https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.1/source/arch/x86/kvm/vmx/nested.c#L2709)
so I think the setting needs to be moved to just prior to that call
with Paolo's rollback along with another for if the prereqs and
postreqs fail.  I put a patch together below:

------------------------------------

nested_run_pending=1 implies we have successfully entered guest mode.
Move setting from external state in vmx_set_nested_state() until after
all other checks are complete.
