Cpu utilization showing system time for kvm guests (performance) (sysstat)

I built a test kernel with commit 61bd0f66ff92. The test kernel can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1755979

Can you test this kernel and see if it resolves this bug?

Note, to test this kernel, you need to install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.

Thanks in advance!

With this test kernel, I now see guest time reported correctly in the host:

03:32:17 PM CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %steal %guest %gnice %idle
03:32:19 PM all 0.00 0.00 0.91 0.00 0.00 0.02 0.00 64.58 0.00 34.48

4.15.0-12-generic #13~lp175597

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-artful' to 'verification-done-artful'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-artful' to 'verification-failed-artful'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!
