Forgot about that, sorry. Will fix.

No, it does not:

+		if (ti_work & _TIF_SIGPENDING) {
+			kvm_handle_signal_exit(vcpu);
+			return -EINTR;
+		}

and

+#ifdef CONFIG_KVM_EXIT_TO_GUEST_WORK
+static inline void kvm_handle_signal_exit(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
+{
+	vcpu->run->exit_reason = KVM_EXIT_INTR;
+	vcpu->stat.signal_exits++;
+}
+#endif /* CONFIG_KVM_EXIT_TO_GUEST_WORK */

in patch 5/15

Thanks,
