This is not a race condition. The sequence counter is supposed to ensure 
a consistent state. You can't simply remove this.

Maybe the PPS support requires that we use two timehands even for the 
uniprocessor configuration. For this, we have to understand under which 
conditions and use cases the generation change is an issue.
