We currently check if the VM has a userspace irqchip on every exit from the VCPU, and if so, we do some work to ensure correct timer behavior. This is unfortunate, as we could avoid doing any work entirely, if we didn't have to support irqchip in userspace. Realizing the userspace irqchip on ARM is mostly a developer or hobby feature, and is unlikely to be used in servers or other scenarios where performance is a priority, we can use a refcounted static key to only check the irqchip configuration when we have at least one VM that uses an irqchip in userspace.
