Note that recent processors support nested layers of virtualization
natively with little overhead, but it's disabled by default.
For an Intel processor, it can be enabled by adding this to your system

(kernel-arguments (cons "kvm_intel.nested=1" %default-kernel-arguments))
The corresponding AMD kernel module is called "kvm_amd".
