    nEPT: Nested INVEPT

    If we let L1 use EPT, we should probably also support the INVEPT
instruction.

    In our current nested EPT implementation, when L1 changes its EPT table
    for L2 (i.e., EPT12), L0 modifies the shadow EPT table (EPT02), and in
    the course of this modification already calls INVEPT. But if last level
    of shadow page is unsync not all L1's changes to EPT12 are intercepted,
    which means roots need to be synced when L1 calls INVEPT. Global INVEPT
    should not be different since roots are synced by kvm_mmu_load() each
    time EPTP02 changes.
