I merged this part into my tools patch this way:

              /* ECX[5] is availability of VMX */
              if (is_nstedhvm)
                  set_bit(X86_FEATURE_VMXE, regs[2]);
              break;

I changed this to

         (cpu_has_vmx ? X86_CR4_VMXE : 0))))

where cpu_has vmx is in <asm/cpufeature.h> defined as

 #define cpu_has_vmx  boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_VMXE)
