I think you could always return 0 before the accelerator is initialized;
the CPUs haven't started yet so the return value must be 0.

However, I wonder if that is already causing problems with live
migration (where the QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL jumps from 0 to a possibly high
value after migration is completed).  So independent of this series,
perhaps QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME should be used instead.  CCing Berto.
