I guess this is my personal taste, and this is the kind of cosmetic
things that help me reason about the code. Some people use syntax
highlighting, I use bracketing. I don't think this really matters in
the grand scheme of things.

If we end-up here, this is very much a hypervisor logic bug.

This switch is supposed to cover all the NS exception levels, in
either stack configuration. If we suddenly find ourselves with a
non-architectural state, we have horribly messed up. And no, a guest
shouldn't be able to affect this. If it can, that's even more of a
reason to take everything down ASAP.
