Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Defer vtime accounting 'til after IRQ handling
Defer the call to account guest time until after servicing any IRQ(s)
that happened in the guest or immediately after VM-Exit. Tick-based
accounting of vCPU time relies on PF_VCPU being set when the tick IRQ
handler runs, and IRQs are blocked throughout the main sequence of
vcpu_enter_guest(), including the call into vendor code to actually
enter and exit the guest.
This fixes a bug where reported guest time remains '0', even when
running an infinite loop in the guest:
