[ Upstream commit 23797b98909f34b75fd130369bde86f760db69d0 ] We can't just use the top bits of the last sync event as they could be off-by-one every 65,536 seconds, giving an error in reconstruction of 65,536 seconds. This patch uses the difference in the bottom 16 bits (mod 2^16) to calculate an offset that needs to be applied to the last sync event to get to the current time.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
