    x86/vvmx: don't enable vmcs shadowing for nested guests
    
    Running "./xtf_runner vvmx" in L1 Xen under L0 Xen produces the
    following result on H/W with VMCS shadowing:
    
        Test: vmxon
        Failure in test_vmxon_in_root_cpl0()
          Expected 0x8200000f: VMfailValid(15) VMXON_IN_ROOT
               Got 0x82004400: VMfailValid(17408) <unknown>
        Test result: FAILURE
    
    This happens because SDM allows vmentries with enabled VMCS shadowing
    VM-execution control and VMCS link pointer value of ~0ull. But results
    of a nested VMREAD are undefined in such cases.
    
    Fix this by not copying the value of VMCS shadowing control from vmcs01
    to vmcs02.
