I very highly recommend adding a helper to switch VMCB.  Odds are very good
there will be more than just these two lines of boilerplate code for changing
the active VMCB.

I'm pretty sure this is user triggerable.  AFAIK, nothing prevents calling
svm_set_nested_state() while L2 is active, e.g. VMX explicitly (and forcefully)
kicks the vCPU out of L2 in vmx_set_nested_state().
