Cover letter [PATCH 0/7] hwclock patch cover letter.
This hwclock patch set includes three topics, one is needed functionality, the other two are bug fixes.
The first also fixes three bugs as a side effect (See 'Part II' in its commit message).
The second fixes a complaint we receive regularly from users that keep their Hardware Clock set to the local timescale while running NTP.
Note: to test this fix you will need a kernel >= 3.13, as 11 minute mode was broken from 3.0 ~ 3.13-rc1.
The third involves the use of --systohc at shutdown. We need this with 11 minute mode to refresh the adjtime file's timestamps, but doing so clobbers the drift factor to near zero. When not running NTP it causes drift factor creep by assuming that the System Clock is keeping perfect time. Of course, it is not.
