[Bug 592815] Re: Weird kernel timestamp jumping and incorrect time reported in kernel messages

[Jeff Lane]

Also, I went ahead and re-tried this with the latest upstream kernel:
Linux klaatu 2.6.35-999-generic #201006111153 SMP Fri Jun 11 10:56:15 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

and the behaviour is still there.  Also, I finally realized the pattern
which seems to be that the time jump only occurs after the system goes
to sleep.  After a fresh boot, I seem to be OK until that first suspend,
and that's when the timestamps get wonky:

Jun 11 16:19:45 klaatu kernel: [  166.557825] CPU 7 is now offline
Jun 11 16:19:45 klaatu kernel: [  166.557827] SMP alternatives: switching to UP code
Jun 11 16:19:45 klaatu kernel: [  166.564774] Extended CMOS year: 2000
Jun 11 16:19:45 klaatu kernel: [18446744056.092995] Extended CMOS year: 2000
Jun 11 16:19:45 klaatu kernel: [18446744056.093041] Enabling non-boot CPUs ...
Jun 11 16:19:45 klaatu kernel: [18446744056.093209] SMP alternatives: switching to SMP code

As before, the first three lines are the last messages before fully
suspended and the last three lines are the first messages after resume
begins.

This particular batch was after booting freshly into the latest upstream
kernel.
