This is very complicated and you're not documenting the return value of
handle_wfx_nested.

If you get rid of the defensive statement in kvm_inject_nested, you can
turn that one into a void, and handle_wfx_nested can become a bool, and
then this becomes:

if (ret)
return 1;

If for some reason you don't like that, you can still just do:

if (ret == 1)
return 1;
