Can you try this patch to see if it fixes the problem?
You haven't read my replies, did you? ;-)
kvm_request_guest_time_update seems to have been
removed, and kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_CLOCK_UPDATE, vcpu)
seems to be used instead, adding it fixes the problem.
That's what I was going to use in the patch... :)

I did read your mail, but I was working on an old tree... because of that transformation, this fix will unfortunately have to be back and forward ported by hand.

Did you try just that change right applied on top of the patch (e48672fa25e879f7ae21785c7efd187738139593) implicated by bisect?

It will be great to know if that change alone fixes the problem, if so, the fix you propose is probably the right one for upstream.

Thanks,

Zach
