I like this more, but it's still a bit ugly.

Wrong pairing of ratio and offset (not necessarily what you queued, obviously).

Alternatively, what about something like this?

		u64 offset, ratio;

		if (msr_info->host_initiated) {
			offset = vcpu->arch.l1_tsc_offset;
			ratio = vcpu->arch.l1_tsc_scaling_ratio;
		} else {
			offset = vcpu->arch.tsc_offset;
			ratio = vcpu->arch.tsc_scaling_ratio;
		}
		msr_info->data = kvm_scale_tsc(vcpu, rdtsc(), ratio) + offset;

or an option that would require additional refactoring:

		struct kvm_guest_tsc *tsc;

		tsc = msr_info->host_initiated ? &vcpu->arch.l1_tsc :
						 &vcpu->arch.current_tsc;

		msr_info->data = tsc->offset +
				 kvm_scale_tsc(vcpu, rdtsc(), tsc->scaling_ratio);
