This looks fine in code, just a quirk in the visual representation of
the diff file.

Dito.

SET CLOCK will always set the right-most 64 bits of the TOD. The
left-most bits are assumed to be 0 (that's how I understand the
architecture). SET CLOCK can at one point no longer be reliably used.

But until these years come, SET CLOCK has to continue to work (even if
the guest has Multiple-epoch facility). And that can be guaranteed by
setting the epoch index accordingly.

Especially, if we have with mepoch: "Guest TOD = HOST TOD - 1", the
epoch index has to be set to 0xff and the epoch to 0xffff...fff. Right
now, the epoch index would not be set.

Should be easy to reproduced by doing a

STORE CLOCK %d followed by A SET_CLOCK %d in the guest. As the Host TOD
has been incremented, we have "Guest TOD = Host TOD - X", and not
setting the epoch index to 0xff results in a wrong Guest TOD calculation
on the next STORE CLOCK.

Thanks!
