If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

This can leave a system with a very out-of-date system clock. It can be somewhat mitigated by using NTP, but that still leaves issues in early boot (inaccurate last mount times, etc). [Test Case] if dmesg | grep -q 'rtc-efi: setting system clock'; then PASS else FAIL fi [Regression Risk] This enables a new driver only on ARM64, so the risk should be low to other platforms. The upstream patches do refactor the rtc-efi driver but, that driver was previously only compilable on ia64, which isn't supported by Ubuntu.
