vcpu->arch.guest_fpu.fpstate->xfd just means the guest is enabling XFD.
I don't think we can conclude that this #NM is caused by XFD only from
this.  i.e., there may be some false positives.

IIUC, L1 KVM can inject a nested exception whose vector isn't #DB, or #NM or
#PF with a non-zero event_data to L2. If delivering the nested exception causes a
VM-exit to L0 KVM, the assertion that event_data is always 0 for vectors other
than #DB/#NM/#PF fails.
