[ Upstream commitb5179ec418] VMs may show incorrect uptime and dmesg printk offsets on hypervisors with unstable clock. The problem is produced when VM is rebooted without exiting from qemu. The fix is to calculate clock offset not only for stable clock but for unstable clock as well, and use kvm_sched_clock_read() which substracts the offset for both clocks. This is safe, because pvclock_clocksource_read() does the right thing and makes sure that clock always goes forward, so once offset is calculated with unstable clock, we won't get new reads that are smaller than offset, and thus won't get negative results. Thank you Jon DeVree for helping to reproduce this issue.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
