Not sure if I understood the case fully.. so trying to sketch scenario here -
if nmi_l1_to_l2 is true then event is coming from EVTINJ. .which could
be one of following case -
1) L0 (vnmi enabled) and L1 (vnmi disabled)
2) L0 & L1 both vnmi disabled.

In both cases the vnmi check will fail for L1 and execution path
will fall back to default - right?

Thanks,
Santosh
