Perhaps you can increase the pending counter on pit_timer_fn, and
reinject on ACK?

Also, due to
http://www.mail-archive.com/kvm-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg13250.html,
it should be safer to keep PIT locked to vcpu0 if IOAPIC dest mode is
lowprio.


Yes. We don't actually need to lock the PIT to vcpu 0, instead just make sure the lowprio selection picks vcpu 0 for irq 0/2.
