The offset for rtc_cmos must be -500ms to work correctly with the current
implementation of rtc_set_ntp_time() due to the following:
tsched twrite(t2.tv_sec - 1) t2 (seconds increment)
twrite - tsched is the transport time for the write to hit the device,
which is negligible for this chip because it's accessed directly.
t2 - twrite = 500ms according to the datasheet.
But rtc_set_ntp_time() calculation of tsched is:
tsched = t2 - 1sec - (t2 - twrite)
The default for the sync offset is 500ms which means that the write happens
at t2 - 1.5 seconds which is obviously off by a second for this device.
Make the offset -500ms so it works correct.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
