If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Marcelo Tosatti commit 7f187922ddf6b67f2999a76dcb71663097b75497 upstream. When the guest writes to the TSC, the masterclock TSC copy must be updated as well along with the TSC_OFFSET update, otherwise a negative tsc_timestamp is calculated at kvm_guest_time_update. Once "if (!vcpus_matched && ka->use_master_clock)" is simplified to "if (ka->use_master_clock)", the corresponding "if (!ka->use_master_clock)" becomes redundant, so remove the do_request boolean and collapse everything into a single condition.
