How about moving the stats functions from builtin-stat.c to e.g.
util/stats.c, and then reusing them? Then this struct (which I would
rename to kvm_event_stats) would look like this

struct kvm_event_stats {
u64 time;
struct stats stats;
};

of course the get_event_ accessor generators would need tweaking

Reusing stats would allow this to become just

static void update_event_stats(struct kvm_event_stats *stats, u64 time_diff)
{
update_stats(&kvm_stats->stats, time_diff);
kvm_stats->time += time_diff;
}

This function's name implies it returns the stddev, but it returns the
relative stddev instead. Maybe rename it? This would be simplified
with code reuse too to basically just

return stddev_stats(&kvm_stats->stats) * 100 / kvm_stats->stats.mean;
