There's no such thing as a XenoLinux guest running in HVM mode. The
only HVM-related derivate from XenoLinux are the PV drivers used by
the corresponding version HVM guests. Time management inside such
HVM guests is entirely unaffected by this iirc, i.e. matches that of
plain HVM (without any PV extensions).
