Since commit 31ade306, timekeeping_init() checks for presence of persistent clock by attempting to read a non-zero time value. This is an issue on platforms where persistent_clock (instead is implemented as a free-running counter (instead of an RTC) starting from zero on each boot and running during suspend. Examples are some ARM platforms (e.g. PandaBoard). An attempt to read such a clock during timekeeping_init() may return zero value and falsely declare persistent clock as missing. Additionally, in the above case suspend times may be accounted twice (once from timekeeping_resume() and once from rtc_resume()), resulting in a gradual drift of system time. This patch does a run-time correction of the issue by doing the same check during timekeeping_suspend(). A better long-term solution would have to return error when trying to read non-existing clock and zero when trying to read an uninitialized clock, but that would require changing all persistent_clock implementations. This patch addresses the immediate breakage, for now.
