The monotonic clock value consistency should only be checked if the boot ID is the same as the last journal entry, and requiring that the current boot ID be the same as the boot ID of the last entry is not necessary for ensuring deterministic bisection as we already enforce strict ordering of the real time clock value in a single journal file. This fixes an issue where a new journal file is unnecessarily created every boot, potentially wasting storage space.
