This is https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/60 --
thanks for sending a patch.

Rather than adding in a bool, I think I prefer the version
of the patch in one of the comments to the bug report:
/* Next transition is when we hit cval */
nexttick = gt->cval + offset;
+ if (nexttick < gt->cval) {
+ nexttick = UINT64_MAX;
+ }
i.e. we just saturate nexttick, and then let the existing handling
of "turns out nexttick is too big" handle things.
There is also a comment or two from me in the bug report pointing
out that the handling of wraparound is also wrong in the other
half of this if(); we should look at that too.
