I think that is better.  There is no reason really to clamp the value to
to 0, while we know already that tsc_ref->tsc_offset can be either
positive or negative.  So treating hv_clock->system_time as signed
before the division would make sense.

It should be just

diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/hyperv.c b/arch/x86/kvm/hyperv.c

-	do_div(tsc_ref->tsc_offset, 100);

 	return true;
 }

right?  The test passes for me with this change.
