I guess this should be "svm->vmcb->save.rip", since
KVM_{GET,SET}_NESTED_STATE "save" field contains vmcb01 data,
not vmcb{0,1}2 (in contrast to the "control" field).

Argh, yes.  Is userspace required to set L2 guest state prior to KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE?
If not, this will result in garbage being loaded into vmcb02.


Let's just require X86_FEATURE_NRIPS, either in general or just to
enable nested virtualiazation, i.e.:

diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c b/arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c

enable_apicv = avic = avic && npt_enabled && (boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_AVIC) || force_avic);
If I looked it up correctly it was introduced around 2010-2011.
