Migration reads CLOCK_HOST when not holding the replay_mutex, which
asserts when recording a trace. These are not guest visible so should
be CLOCK_REALTIME like other statistics in MigrationState, which do
not require the replay_mutex.

Irrelevant of the change, should we document such lock implications in
timer.h?

I guess the intention was to try to avoid caller caring too much
about replay internals, so I'm not sure if that will help or
hinder understanding :(

I think the big rule is something like "if it affects guest state,
then you must use HOST or VIRTUAL*, if it does not affect guest state
then you must use REALTIME". record-replay code then takes care of
replay mutex locking.

Does get a little fuzzy around edges in code that is somewhat
aware of record-replay though, like migration/snapshots.

(Pavel please correct me if I've been saying the wrong things)

Thanks,
Nick
