Its hard to see the intended API from the patches, but I remain strongly
convinced that you must be able to open/close and use normal file
operations on a clock.

Having the id space nibble away at the future cpu clock range and pid
size is always a bit iffy.

The rest of the stuff - kref counting and the like look nice and it's
definitely going the right way about that.
