https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/15/217 I sent out a patch yesterday which
can fix the regression. Your patch breaks full dynticks guest since
vtime doesn't depend on clock ticks, so we should keep the max cputime
limit for it as my patch description mentioned, remove the limit for
vtime results in the calltrace. My patch does what Paolo suggested
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/12/380 for lost ticks scenario.

Wanpeng Li
