Can this really happen?

'online_vcpus' is never decreased, it is increased with every
kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu() call when a new vCPU is created and is set to
0 when all vCPUs are destroyed (kvm_free_vcpus()).

kvm_guest_time_update() takes a vcpu as a parameter, this means that at
least 1 vCPU is currently present so 'online_vcpus' just can't be zero.
