Try hacking qemu/qemu-kvm.c:pre_kvm_run() with something like that:

+#if 1
+#define MIN_CYCLE_COUNT 100
+		{
+                    static int cycle_count;
+		  
+		    if (++cycle_count > MIN_CYCLE_COUNT) {
+                        cycle_count = 0;
+                        return 1;
+                    }
+		}
+#endif
