settimeofday(2) has been deprecated as of glibc 2.31
which hwclock makes use of. This patch makes hwclock
compatible with glibc v2.31
See patch for more details:
busybox/0001-hwclock-make-glibc-2.31-compatible.patch
Fixes [YOCTO #13981]

+Subject: [PATCH] hwclock: make glibc 2.31 compatible
+
+NEWS for glibc version 2.31
+===========================
+
+Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting
compatibility:
+
+* The settimeofday function can still be used to set a system-wide
+ time zone when the operating system supports it. This is because
+ the Linux kernel reused the API, on some architectures, to describe
+ a system-wide time-zone-like offset between the software clock
+ maintained by the kernel, and the "RTC" clock that keeps time when
+ the system is shut down.
+
+ However, to reduce the odds of this offset being set by accident,
+ settimeofday can no longer be used to set the time and the offset
+ simultaneously. If both of its two arguments are non-null, the call
+ will fail (setting errno to EINVAL).
+
+ Callers attempting to set this offset should also be prepared for
+ the call to fail and set errno to ENOSYS; this already happens on
+ the Hurd and on some Linux architectures. The Linux kernel
+ maintainers are discussing a more principled replacement for the
+ reused API. After a replacement becomes available, we will change
+ settimeofday to fail with ENOSYS on all platforms when its 'tzp'
+ argument is not a null pointer.
+
+ settimeofday itself is obsolescent according to POSIX. Programs
+ that set the system time should use clock_settime and/or the adjtime
+ family of functions instead. We may cease to make settimeofday
+ available to newly linked binaries after there is a replacement for
+ Linux's time-zone-like offset API.
+
+hwclock had two calls to settimeofday, in functions to_sys_clock and
+set_system_clock_timezone, where both the arguments to settimeofday
+were valid (non-null).
+Therefore, split the call, once for timezone and once for timeval.
+
+Fixes #12756
+
