It is possible that when non root mode is entered via special entry
(!from_vmentry), that is from SMM or from loading the nested state,
the L2 state could be invalid in regard to non unrestricted guest mode,
but later it can become valid.
(for example when RSM emulation restores segment registers from SMRAM)
Thus delay the check to VM entry, where we will check this and fail.
