I suspect the goal is to mark messages printed by the PM trace code so that
they can be easily distinguished from messages from other sources to avoid
confusion. Why do you think it's a good idea to use the "UTC" string for
this purpose? The time printed in those messages need not be UTC.
It would be better to simply print "RTC time: ..., date: ..." IMO.
Thanks,
Rafael
