If you check the code of my patches, you would find pv clock source can work
without pv clock event now. And if you check Stefano's patch, you would find
it solved the issue when they are binding(which I neglected). But it can't
solve the issue now.
"Actually attach" is a good point, but I am not sure there is such kind of
things now.
