Nope, just personal preference to keep the nested code as isolated as
possible.  We use a similar approach for vmx_{g,s}et_vmx_msr().

Though if we do want to go this route, it'd be better to simply move
handle_vmx_instruction() to nested.c instead of bouncing through that
and nested_vmx_handle_vmx_instruction().
