Sure,

I don't actually see any fundumental problems when eVMCS is in use,
however, I'd like to enable migration when we know that it works so I
was going to wait for your nested virtualization state migration series
to land and gain Qemu support before starting to experiment. "One bite
at a time".

I'll take a look, thanks for the pointer!
