I don't love this approach.  KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE will now succeed with a bad
vmcs12.GUEST_CR3.  At a minimum, GUEST_CR3 should be checked in
nested_vmx_check_guest_state().  It also feels like vcpu->arch.cr3 should be set
immediately, e.g. KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE -> KVM_GET_SREGS should reflect L2's CR3
even if KVM_RUN hasn't been invoked.

This neglects to set both exit_reason.basic and vmcs12->exit_qualification.
