I think that makes sense? AFAICT it should probably be conditional on
"nrips" as well. X86_FEATURE_NPT should also be conditional on "nested".
I'll tack on a patch to make those changes, the cleanup is easier without
the things spread across different case statements, e.g. wrap the entire
SVM feature leaf in "if (nested)".
