Could that be related to making nested=1 the default in the kernel?  KVM has

static void vmx_set_supported_cpuid(u32 func, struct kvm_cpuid_entry2
*entry)
{
        if (func == 1 && nested)
                entry->ecx |= bit(X86_FEATURE_VMX);
}

which would date the change to Linux 4.20 (December 2018).
