[PATCH] KVM: LAPIC: Loose fluctuation filter for auto tune lapic_timer_advance_ns

[Wanpeng Li]

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpen...@tencent.com>

5000 guest cycles delta is easy to encounter on desktop, per-vCPU 
lapic_timer_advance_ns always keeps at 1000ns initial value, lets 
loose fluctuation filter a bit to make auto tune can make some 
progress.
