That patch cannot be applied alone. It would break the timekeeping in
not so obvious ways as there will be unexpected sources of the NTP

included with it. There may be others.

aea3706cfc4d ("timekeeping: Remove CONFIG_GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD")
d4d1fc61eb38 ("ia64: Update fsyscall gettime to use modern vsyscall_update")
My suggestion for a fix would be to increase the limit in the failing
test.
Thanks, that's what I expected. But I still wonder why the test is
failing almost 100% of time for me on qemu-arm64 (running on x86). Is
this a regression in 4.14, that was working at some point or was it
never tested on arm?
