.. ahh, and our automation to catch these things didn't find it,
because they are only accessed from x86_wallclock_init(), which is
also __init.

So it all looked superficially good, except for the "oh, we saved them
into a data structure that _isn't_ init".

It would require automation much smarter than the one we have to catch
that kind of thing.
