Thank you for the explanation. Now I get it and this helps.

but in the case the guest was running in vEL1 are we supposed to trap
and end up here? in kvm_emulate_nested_eret I can see
"the current EL is always the vEL2 since we set the HCR_EL2.NV bit only
when entering the vEL2". But I am still catching up on the already landed
