With master clock, a pvclock clock read calculates: ret = system_timestamp + [ (rdtsc + tsc_offset) - tsc_timestamp ]
Where 'rdtsc' is the host TSC. system_timestamp and tsc_timestamp are unique, one tuple per VM: the "master clock". Given a host with synchronized TSCs, its obvious that guest TSC must be matched for the above to guarantee monotonicity. Allow master clock usage only if guest TSCs are synchronized.
