That is great data to have @Kevin, thank you.
There is no problem at all that you've done that with some slightly other 
versions.

The loop around KVM_IRQ_LINE_STATUS really seems interesting and certainly will 
help to identify things. In fact with that I already found:
- https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1638289
- https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg157148.html

All of them unfortunately ended with assumptions on windows programming bad 
timers and that being just a consequence of it.
I still can't repdroduce this on my side to take a look myself, but seeing that 
the upstream experts have already looked at it and didn't have more ideas 
indicates it will be a complex case for them anyway.
The bug is against Fedora and not upstream-kvm/qemu, mostly the same people but 
that is why it was closed EOL.
It seems to me we need the main developers back on it to really get a grip on 
it. - maybe you want to re-kindle this by replying to the old mail thready like 
"this stil is an issue" or open an upstream bug.

But OTOH that might just be an interaction between windows expecting to run on 
real HW and pausing a VM. https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg157371.html 
summarizes that nicely.
So I'm unsure how much more will happen bringing it up again.
