after some research, I think this is the issue:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-September/msg01447.html

the invocation of qemu on this system is:
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -name instance-0000107c -S -machine
pc-i440fx-utopic,accel=kvm,usb=off -cpu
Westmere,+invtsc,+rdtscp,+pdpe1gb,...

and I believe the 'invtsc' which comes from the cpu flag nonstop_tsc
on this X5650 is incorrect(?).
this is discussed here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-May/msg00214.html

this also affects 'suspend' (same error) fwiw.

So, anyone else run into this, and if so, uh, what did you do about it?
