Nit, avoid "we", and explain what KVM does (or doesn't) do, not what KVM "should"
do, e.g. just say

	 * Do not blindly read ...

Another nit, it's worth explaining why XFD_ERR needs to be read here regardless
of is_guest_mode().  E.g.

	 * Injecting the #NM back into the guest is handled in the standard path
	 * as an #NM in L2 may be reflected into L1 as a VM-Exit.  Read XFD_ERR
	 * even if the #NM is from L2, as L1 may have exposed XFD to L2.

Side topic, in a follow up series/patch, it's probably worth adding support in
nested_vmx_prepare_msr_bitmap() to allow passthrough of the MSRs to L2.

Nit, drop this comment, it's slightly misleading since the #NM isn't fully handled
here.  The comment in handle_nm_fault_irqoff() is more than sufficient.
