From: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lur...@redhat.com> It's possible to set system time with dates after 2070, however, it's not possible to set the RTC. It has limitation to up to year 2070 (1970+100). In order to keep both clock in sync and before the kernel complains on invalid values, bail out early.
