Not sure cpu should be here. It's certainly won't survive live migration. Perhaps in struct vmcs_list (which should be renamed, perhaps struct cached_vmcs).

What's the difference between this and launch_state?

This state needs save/restore support (as well as the current vmptr and vmxon state).

Too much indent. the unlikely() looks like the first statement of the block.

I think it isn't enough to check for nested mode. If the guest hasn't enabled virtual NMIs, then the nested guest should behave exactly like the guest.

Not sure why you need to save efer. Ordinarily, vmx reconstructs it from the guest efer and the host size exit control, you can do the same.
