None of what's proposed is fixing the underlying problem of wreckaging
CLOCK_REALTIME.
Stop proliferating broken behaviour and please answer the questions I
asked several times now:
1) Why has the TSC has to restart at the same value?
2) What is the technical argument that it is correct and acceptable
to wreckage CLOCK_REALTIME by doing #1?
Thanks,
