EFER is set for L2 using svm_set_efer, which hardcodes EFER_SVME to 1

an incorrect value for EFER.SVME in the L1 VMCB.  Perform the check
manually
to detect invalid guest state.

Ah! This now tells me that I forgot the KVM fix that was supposed to
accompany my patchset.
Heh, indeed.  I was puzzled for a second after applying it, then decided
I would just fix it myself. :)

Do we need this check in software ? I wasn't checking the bit in KVM and
instead I was just making sure that L0 sets that bit based on the
setting in nested vmcb:
Thanks !
The only effect of the function below over svm_set_efer is to guarantee
a vmrun error to happen.  Doing the test in nested_vmcb_checks is more
consistent with other must-be-one bits such as the VMRUN intercept, and
it's also a smaller patch.
