Thanks Randy,

All coments relevant. I'll update the document to cover them.

As for your question: Both bit 3 and 0 are used, yes. But they
tell the guest to use a different MSR pair. However, this document
is intented for people not familiar with kvmclock. If you read it,
and could not extract that from the text, it definitely needs to
be augmented.

Thanks!
