I'm somewhat worried even trace_tod_update() is maybe too vague (again
not that the name specifically is critical, but that the semantics we're
specifying are clear). In other words, I think you're wanting a
tracepoint at any time CLOCK_REALTIME is updated by anything other then
the normal progression of time? Is that right?

yes. essentially everywhere timekeeping_update() is called except update_wall_time().


You may want to also include the leapsecond modification in the tracing
as well.

I thought those were covered as well. hmm... maybe not if it triggers in update_wall_time.
