Ah I see, so you propose to check for guest mode and enable_ept in the
function instead of switching to another function, but switching to
another function is how code was designed to be. Nested NPT/EPT provide
their own function too, but there is nothing that stops you from
checking on what MMU you are now in the function itself.

I described what I saw with VMX, I am not saying the same happens with
SVM :) I just do not see why it should not and the non fatality of the
BUG can explain why it was missed.
