Title:
   VMware nested under KVM stopped working on 5.19 kernel on Ryzen:
  Invalid VMCB.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My setup:

  Host: Ubuntu Linux 22.04.1, kernel 5.15, Ryzen 5900x
  Hypervisor: KVM
  Windows VM with VMware Workstation 16

  Running nested VMs in VMware works ok.

  It fails if Linux host kernel is updated to 5.19 (22.04.2) with

  MONITOR PANIC: Invalid VMCB.
  VMware Workstation unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0)
  vcpu-0:Invalid VMCB.

  If I update to Workstation 17 it fails with

  2023-02-24T15:21:35.112Z In(05) vmx The following features are required for 
SVM support in VMware Workstation; however, these features are not available on 
this host:
  2023-02-24T15:21:35.112Z In(05) vmx    Flush by ASID.
  This host supports AMD-V, but the AMD-V implementation is incompatible with 
VMware Workstation.
  VMware Workstation does not support the user level monitor on this host.
  Module 'MonitorMode' power on failed.

   
  The same VM works ok on 5.19 kernel on my Intel PC.

  So it has to do with updated Linux kernel and AMD virtualization and
  VMware.
