It isn't obvious to me that this is the right thing to do. vcpu->preempted is always updated on sched-out from the preempt notifier if the vcpu was on the run-queue, so my guess is that it will always be set when switching to another task. What you probably want is to check whether the vcpu is blocked by introspecting the wait-queue with: scuwait_active(kvm_arch_vcpu_get_wait(vcpu) which will tell you whether you are blocking or not. We are already using a similar construct for arming a background timer in this case.
