Commit332d079735("KVM: nVMX: KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE - Tear down old EVMCS state before setting new state", 2019-05-02) broke evmcs_test because the eVMCS setup must be performed even if there is no VMXON region defined, as long as the eVMCS bit is set in the assist page. While the simplest possible fix would be to add a check on kvm_state->flags & KVM_STATE_NESTED_EVMCS in the initial "if" that covers kvm_state->hdr.vmx.vmxon_pa == -1ull, that is quite ugly. Instead, this patch moves checks earlier in the function and conditionalizes them on kvm_state->hdr.vmx.vmxon_pa, so that vmx_set_nested_state always goes through vmx_leave_nested and nested_enable_evmcs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
