That's because chrony (ntp) sync the time in 1st kernel to the right time.
I think /etc/adjtime shouldn't exist or at least adjtime file should
contain UTC rather than LOCAL in case of s390. I've filed bz1070748 for
anaconda. You can find more details there.
I think we can hold off this patch review and wait some response from
anaconda team and Hendrik.
Anaconda team has confirmed this bz but defers it to 7.1.
I think in our case, we shouldn't install adjtime file at all. What do
you think?
