Let's just require X86_FEATURE_NRIPS, either in general or just to
enable nested virtualiazation, i.e.:

diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c b/arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c
index fc1725b7d05f..f8fc8a1b09f1 100644
--- a/arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c
+++ b/arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c
@@ -4904,10 +4904,12 @@ static __init int svm_hardware_setup(void)
goto err;
}

- if (nrips) {
- if (!boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_NRIPS))
- nrips = false;
- }
+ if (!boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_NRIPS))
+ nrips = false;
+ if (nested & !nrips) {
+ pr_warn("Next RIP Save not available, disabling nested virtualization\n");
+ nested = false;
+ }

enable_apicv = avic = avic && npt_enabled && (boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_AVIC) || force_avic);

If I looked it up correctly it was introduced around 2010-2011.
