Alan:this register is in the GUC-SHIM domain and so unless i am mistaken u might need to ensure we hold a wakeref so
that are getting a live value of the real timestamp register that this register is mirror-ing and not a stale snapshot.
Or was this already done farther up the stack? Or are we doing the opposite - in which case we should ensure we drop al
 wakeref prior to this point. (which i am not sure is a reliable method since we wouldnt know what GuC ref was at).
