    KVM: VMX: Move nested EPT out of kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() hook · 0047fcad

    Separate the "core" TDP level handling from the nested EPT path to make
    it clear that kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() is used if and only if nested
    EPT is not in use (kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu() calculates the level from
    the passed in vmcs12->eptp).  Add a WARN_ON() to enforce that the
    kvm_x86_ops hook is not called for nested EPT.
    
    This sets the stage for snapshotting the non-"nested EPT" TDP page level
    during kvm_cpuid_update() to avoid the retpoline associated with
    kvm_x86_ops.get_tdp_level() when resetting the MMU, a relatively
    frequent operation when running a nested guest.
    
    No functional change intended.
