No. The L1 guest needs to execute VMRUN with an interrupt to inject to

interrupt becomes pending which causes an immediate #vmexit from L2 to
L2 again without even entering the L2 guest. The bug was that in this
case the event which the L1 tried to inject in the L2 was lost because
it was not copied to exit_int_info.

(from L1 to L0?)

Wow.  Alex, how did you find this?

We can try to cause an interrupt using a signal from another thread, but that's too difficult as the first test in a test suite.
