If guest sets MSR_IA32_TSCDEADLINE to value such that in host time-domain it's shorter than lapic_timer_advance_ns, we can reach a case that we call hrtimer_start() with expiration time set at the past. Because lapic_timer.timer is init with HRTIMER_MODE_ABS_PINNED, it is not allowed to run in softirq and therefore will never expire. To avoid such a scenario, verify that deadline expiration time is set on host time-domain further than (now + lapic_timer_advance_ns). A future patch can also consider adding a min_timer_deadline_ns module parameter, similar to min_timer_period_us to avoid races that amount of ns it takes to run logic could still call hrtimer_start() with expiration timer set at the past.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
