Might it make sense to fix this issue under the existing locking
scheme, then shift to what you're proposing? I say that, but the
locking change in 03/21 would most certainly have a short lifetime
until this patch supersedes it.
Yes, definitely.  The seqcount change would definitely go in much later. 
  Extracting KVM_{GET,SET}_CLOCK to separate function would also be a 
patch of its own.  Give me a few more days of frantic KVM Forum 
preparation. :)
