    Nested VMX: update nested paging mode on vmexit
    
    Since SVM and VMX use different mechanism to emulate the virtual-vmentry
    and virtual-vmexit, it's hard to update the nested paging mode correctly in
    common code. So we need to update the nested paging mode in their respective
    code path.
    SVM already updates the nested paging mode on vmexit. This patch adds the 
same
    logic in VMX side.
