Heh, I loved that show.

Can you see if you still have the issue if you disable that. PARAVIRT
adds a bit of magic when run on baremetal. See
arch/x86/kernel/alterative.c. On boot up, things like disabling
interrupts, which are originally compiled to perform a function call,
that on a virtual machine would do hypervisor calls into the host, and
on baremetal does the real code. But that alterative.c file will do
live patching of the code to not do the function call but instead do
the real work in place (if it can).

Something tells me that with clang, things are not as they're expected,
and perhaps the modification isn't working.
