It is WARN_ON_ONCE, so it quite likely happened with 3.18 too.

5f3d5799974b8 KVM: nVMX: Rework event injection and recovery:
  This concept is based on the rule that a pending vmlaunch/vmresume is
  not canceled. Otherwise, we would risk to lose injected events or leak
  them into the wrong queues. Encode this rule via a WARN_ON_ONCE at the
  entry of nested_vmx_vmexit.

I wonder if we have broken the invariant since 3.9 ...
