I pointed at this thread in the "clocks" pull request, so then should be now,
soon. And if that doesn't work, I'll just rename the getter to
KVM_GET_PAOLO_PAOLO_PAOLO and send a pull request. Either that will get his
attention, or we'll have a source of amusement for years to come :-)

Joking aside, this would be a good PUCK topic if we need/want a synchronous
session to sort things out.
