The changelog isn't all that helpful to understanding the actual change.
All this is doing is wrapping kvm_set_cr3(), but that's not at all obvious
from reading the above.

E.g.

Add nested_svm_load_cr3() as a pass-through to kvm_set_cr3() as a
preparatory change for implementing nested specific PGD switch for nSVM,
(following nVMx's nested_vmx_load_cr3()).

IMO the addition of nested_npt_enabled() should be a separate patch, and
the additoin of @nested_npt should be in patch 7.

Hypothetically speaking, if nested_npt_enabled() is inaccurate at the call
site in nested_prepare_vmcb_save(), then this patch is technically wrong
even though it doesn't introduce a bug. Given that the call site of
nested_svm_load_cr3() is moved in patch 7, I don't see any value in adding
the placeholder parameter early.
