KVM's PV steal time information isn't exposed anywhere, but only because it's simply a reflection of the task's run_delay that's reported in /proc/PID/schedstat (second column). I assume there are tools that translate schedstat into human-readable information, and/or do analysis on the info, but I don't have personal experience with any such tools. If you need more help, I recommend pinging sched folks, as this is really a scheduler question, not a KVM question.
