We are interested only in L1's EPT state, not the the combined L0+L1 value. In particular, if L0 uses EPT but L1 does not, nested_ept_enabled must be false to make sure that PDPSTRs are loaded based on CR3 as usual, because the special case described in 26.3.2.4 Loading Page-Directory- Pointer-Table Entries does not apply.
