03-upstream-adjtimex.patch Cherry-pick from upstream
The adjtimex(2) code path in OpenNTPD-portable has a logic error
where STA_UNSYNC is always set. This is the case because the code
check for TIME_ERROR before checking if the offset is zero. However,
even when the offset is set adjtimex(2) will return TIME_ERROR on
Linux when STA_UNSYNC was set beforehand. Therefore, if it was
set initially, OpenNTPD-portable never unset STA_UNSYNC.

This patch fixes this by removing the adjtimex(2) code path entirely.
Thereby, unconditionally using adjtime(2) instead. This patch change
has been pushed upstream, see:
