The scheduling-clock interrupt would happen, but I do not know whether
or not it would kick the vcpu out of guest mode in such a way that
would result in RCU thinking that the CPU has passed through a quiescent

The result can only be one of
reenter guest (and rcu_virt_note_context_switch)
schedule()
exit to userspace
