The leading "s" in "snsec" looks like a copy-paste residue.

Using tk->tkr_mono offsets for real time seems wrong -- what happens if
the real time is half a second shifted from monotonic time?

If it's ok, then vdata->nsec_base == vdata->wall_time_snsec, so we don't
need it.

This is too similar to do_monotonic_boot(), but I don't see a solution
that is both nice and efficient. :(

(It usually means macros or copying pvclock_gtod_data.)
