The attached patch should do the trick.

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nVMX: Do not dynamically set VMX instruction exit
handlers
Handle VMX instructions via a dedicated function and a switch statement
provided by the nVMX code instead of overwriting kvm_vmx_exit_handlers
when nested support is enabled. This will allow a future patch to make
kvm_vmx_exit_handlers a const, which in turn allows for better compiler
optimizations, e.g. direct calls instead of retpolined indirect calls.
