Closer inspection of the Xen code shows that we aren't supposed to be using the XEN_RUNSTATE_UPDATE flag unconditionally. It should be explicitly enabled by guests through the HYPERVISOR_vm_assist hypercall. If we randomly set the top bit of ->state_entry_time for a guest that hasn't asked for it and doesn't expect it, that could make the runtimes fail to add up and confuse the guest. Without the flag it's perfectly safe for a vCPU to read its own vcpu_runstate_info; just not for one vCPU to read *another's*. I briefly pondered adding a word for the whole set of VMASST_TYPE_* flags but the only one we care about for HVM guests is this, so it seemed a bit pointless.
