"is_valid" please so that it's clear the helper is a check, not a declaration.

Would it be accurate to call it nested_vmx_is_evmptr12_valid()?  If so, that has
my vote.  It's a bit verbose, but it should be fully self-explanatory for anyone
that's familiar with KVM's vmcs12 and vmcb12 terminology.
