Ok.

hmm,. trying to understand the event re-injection flow -
First L1 (non-vnmi) injecting event to L2 guest, in-turn
intercepted by L0, L0 sees event injection through EVTINJ
so sets the 'nmi_l1_to_l2' var and then L0 calls svm_inject_nmi()
to re-inject event in L2 - is that correct (nmi_l1_to_l2) flow?
Thanks,.
