You can't prevent host preemption.  You might read kvmclock again and
repeat if too much time has passed.
But then you can be scheduled after you did settimeofday, but before reading
kvmclock again. Since we're aiming for periodic adjustments here,
any discrepancies should not last long, so we can maybe live with it.

do {
    read_kvmclock
    settimeofday
    read_kvmclock
} while the_difference_between_the_two_reads_is_too_large
