"time in nanoseconds", but I can fix this up myself if there are no
other comments that need to be addressed.

You set the error, but then fall through...

...and change the guest time to an invalid value anyways.  This could
cause the guest to severely misbehave.

You should have done an early exit on the other error, like you did here.

The absolute value given by the management app _is_ information from the
host.  I'd simplify this to just:

This command tries to set guest time to the given value, then

Unfortunately, that's not the only problem, and I think a v5 is
warranted (see my other mail).
