+ * whether it stores the most close value or the value with partial
+ * seconds truncated. However, it is important that we use it to store
+ * the truncated value. This is because otherwise it is necessary,
+ * in an rtc sync function, to read both xtime.tv_sec and
+ * xtime.tv_nsec. On some processors (i.e. ARM), an atomic read
+ * of >32bits is not possible. So storing the most close value would
+ * slow down the sync API. So here we have the truncated value and
+ * the best guess is to add 0.5s.
