What are the problems? Specifically if we emulate the effects of an
immediate vmexit properly. I'm not categorically excluding that some
case is missing. If we do not allow soft-vmexit here, we will set the
interrupt window later and will get such an immediate exit as well
(provided the L2 was interruptible).

Sorry, don't understand the last sentence. This check is about the
software idt_vectoring_info_field, the one we keep for L1, not the real
field.
