Subject: [PATCH] kvm: Return -ENODEV from update_persistent_clock
Date: Tue, 31 Oct 2017 14:28:09 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171031202809.GA1272@ziepe.ca> (raw)

kvm does not support setting the RTC, so the correct result is -ENODEV.
Returning -1 will cause sync_cmos_clock to keep trying to set the RTC
every second.
