[PATCH] x86/pvclock-xen: zero last_value on resume
If the guest domain has been suspend/resumed or migrated, then the system clock backing the pvclock clocksource may revert to a smaller value (ie, can be non-monotonic across the migration/save-restore). Make sure we zero last_value in that case so that the domain continues to see clock updates.

That (in theory) guarantees monotonicity. I am not opposed to this patch in any way, however.

Looks like this fell through the gaps.Does not apply cleanly here - mind resending the latest version? Thanks, Ingo
