Even when we are outside the nested guest, some vmcs02 fields
may not be in sync vs vmcs12. This is intentional, even across
nested VM-exit, because the sync can be delayed until the nested
hypervisor performs a VMCLEAR or a VMREAD/VMWRITE that affects those
rarely accessed fields.
However, during KVM_GET_NESTED_STATE, the vmcs12 has to be up to date to
be able to restore it. To fix that, call copy_vmcs02_to_vmcs12_rare()
before the vmcs12 contents are copied to userspace.

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.
