I don't believe we have anything currently in the NMI handler that
would trigger #VE. While some operations may need TDCALL (like MSR
accesses) those should be all directly hooked.

Also in general to avoid clobbering your stack you would just need
to make sure to adjust the IST stack before you do anything that
could cause another #VE.
