On powerpc, L1 hypervisor takes help of L0 using H_ENTER_NESTED hcall to load L2 guest state in cpu. L1 hypervisor prepares the L2 state in struct hv_guest_state and passes a pointer to it via hcall. Using that pointer, L0 reads/writes that state directly from/to L1 memory. Thus L0 must be aware of hv_guest_state layout of L1. Currently it uses version field to achieve this. i.e. If L0 hv_guest_state.version != L1 hv_guest_state.version, L0 won't allow nested kvm guest. This restriction can be loosened up a bit. L0 can be taught to understand older layout of hv_guest_state, if we restrict the new members to be added only at the end, i.e. we can allow nested guest even when L0 hv_guest_state.version > L1 hv_guest_state.version. Though, the other way around is not possible.
