Agree. The idea was to add an additional parameter (say "check_only") to the
flush_fixed_cb. If this parameter is set to true then the flush_fixed_cb would
do nothing (no flush at all) but return a boolean that would indicate if there
is pending stats. In case it returns false, then we could avoid the clock check.
