What about this:

 	guest_tsc = kvm_x86_ops->read_l1_tsc(vcpu, native_read_tsc());
 	trace_kvm_wait_lapic_expire(vcpu->vcpu_id, guest_tsc - tsc_deadline);
 
	/* We know that __delay is delay_tsc, see kvm_timer_init.  */
 	if (guest_tsc < tsc_deadline)
 		__delay(tsc_deadline - guest_tsc);

and a check in kvm_timer_init:

	if (check_tsc_unstable() && lapic_timer_advance_ns) {
		pr_info("kvm: unstable TSC, disabling lapic_timer_advance_ns\n");
		lapic_timer_advance_ns = 0;
	}

Paolo
