It's a pathological case, but still a valid one: If L1 disables APIC virtualization and also allows L2 to directly write to the APIC page, we have to forcibly enable APIC virtualization while in L2 if the in-kernel APIC is in use. This allows to run the direct interrupt test case in the vmx unit test without x2APIC.
