The default path of ntp drift file is /etc/ntp.drift, ntp daemon
maybe fails to create this file since the user ntp is not always
permitted to write /etc.
Refer to other distributions such as RedHat, Debian, just moving
the file to /var/lib/ntp which the home dir of user ntp.
Note that this new version depends on
http://patches.openembedded.org/patch/81585/ which provides the
packaging of ntp's home directory, which wasn't captured into
master-next. That would be obscured by the presence of the previous
version of this patch which (IMO) improperly uses volatile to create
that directory.
