Andy Lutomirski 0f51f2852c x86-64: Vclock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC) can't ever see nsec < 0
vclock_gettime's do_monotonic helper can't ever generate a negative
nsec value, so it doesn't need to check whether it's negative.  In
the CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE case, ns can't ever exceed 2e9-1, so we
can avoid the loop entirely.  This saves a single easily-predicted
branch.
