You should use virtual_timer_request().  The driver example app should  
help
here.  Note the use of the MILLISECS() macro.

This will set up a periodic, non-busy wait of 25 ms.  The calling  
thread will
receive an async ipc when the timeout is reached.

The periodic timeout can be removed using virtual_timer_cancel().
