But I still think we should avoid exporting the raw cycle values
unless there is some extremely strong argument for it
Looks like the argument was based on a misunderstanding of what
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW actually is.  So, please, let's not expose the raw
cycle counter value.
Correct. Exposing the raw counter value is broken if the counter wraps
around on a regular base.

Thanks,
