From: Wim ten Have <wim.ten.have(a)oracle.com>
Xen feature nestedhvm is the option on Xen 4.4+ which enables
nested virtualization when mode host-passthrough is applied.
nested HVM is enabled by adding below on the target domain;
<cpu mode='host-passthrough'/>
Virtualization on target domain can be disabled by specifying
such under feature policy rule on target name;
[On Intel (VT-x) architecture]
<feature policy='disable' name='vmx'/>
or:
[On AMD (AMD-V) architecture]
<feature policy='disable' name='svm'/>
