Considering that all VMX_VPID_ constants are off by 32, perhaps it's
simpler to have separate variables for nested_vmx_ept_caps and
nested_vmx_vpid_caps, and only rejoin them when reading the MSR. It
will make this patch smaller too.

You can add the new field to struct nested_vmx in patch 3 (leaving it
initialized to 0, of course).
