Comment at: libcxx/test/std/utilities/time/time.clock/time.clock.steady/now.pass.cpp:28
     assert(t2 >= t1);
+    assert(t2 > std::chrono::time_point<C>());

I think a short comment doesn't hurt. Ideally something that isn't strictly related to the bug, like `// make sure t2 didn't wrap around` or something along those lines.
