After thinking about this a bit more, I don't like my previous suggestion.
As we don't semantically want to change the value returned from 
kvm_apic_has_interrupt().
Instead, it makes more sense to change kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() to check for 
RVI>PPR
in case is_guest_mode(vcpu)==true.

Something like (partial theoretical patch):

@@ -97,6 +97,14 @@ int kvm_cpu_has_interrupt(struct kvm_vcpu *v)
        if (kvm_cpu_has_extint(v))
                return 1;
 
+       /*
+        * When running L2, L1 controls vmcs02 RVI via vmcs12.
+        * Therefore, it is possible RVI indicates pending interrupt
+        * for vCPU while LAPIC IRR is empty.
+        */
+       if (is_guest_mode(v) &&
+           (kvm_x86_ops->hwapic_has_interrupt(v) != -1))
+               return 1;
+
        return kvm_apic_has_interrupt(v) != -1; /* LAPIC */
 }

Where:

+static int vmx_get_rvi(void)
+{
+       return ((u8)vmcs_read16(GUEST_INTR_STATUS) & 0xff);
+}

+static int vmx_hwapic_has_interrupt(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
+{
+       int vector = vmx_get_rvi(vcpu);
+       return kvm_apic_has_interrupt_for_vector(vector);
+}

+

+       return (((vector & 0xF0) > ppr) ? (vector) : (-1));

+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(kvm_apic_has_interrupt_for_vector);
