This is a backport of fad0c66c4bb836d57a5f125ecd38bed653ca863a
which resolves a bug the previous commit.
Commit 6b43ae8a61 (ntp: Fix leap-second hrtimer livelock) broke the
leapsecond update of CLOCK_MONOTONIC. The missing leapsecond update to
wall_to_monotonic causes discontinuities in CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
Adjust wall_to_monotonic when NTP inserted a leapsecond.
