[PATCH v5 12/14] nEPT: Advertise EPT to L1

Gleb Natapov

From: Nadav Har'El <nyh@il.ibm.com>

Advertise the support of EPT to the L1 guest, through the appropriate MSR.

This is the last patch of the basic Nested EPT feature, so as to allow
bisection through this patch series: The guest will not see EPT support until
this last patch, and will not attempt to use the half-applied feature.
