Has something gone wrong during installation, or is the documentation faulty?
I don't think the pv-ops kernel has ever supported the concept of independent wallclock as configurable behavior. If you observe any misbehavior without it, please open a bug.
We started switching to independent wallclock when systemd was introduced - systemd kept complaining about the clock being adjusted or something like that.
Over time we had kernel problems in that area, so much would depend on when exactly you found it necessary to switch. Also I don't think your reply really demonstrates any observed misbehavior with the pv-ops kernel, yet that's the only criteria based upon which fixing that kernel or considering to re-introduce that control would become possible routes forward.
After a lot of research, we switched to using independent_wallclock for all guests. Afair, this was/is also the SUSE/Novell recommendation.
Not as far as I know. As long as there are no bugs, running e.g. NTP once in Dom0 would seem the more efficient model compared to running it in every DomU. But of course I don't know who gave this recommendation, and in which context that was.
