      This is a clone of issue OCPBUGS-33349. The following is the description of the original issue:

      Description of problem:

      https://access.redhat.com/support/cases/#/case/03795020

      RT clock on a customer's system provided incorrect time on boot; The fix in https://github.com/openshift-kni/cnf-features-deploy/pull/1438/commits (which was introduced in 4.14) would have mitigated this issue properly.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      4.12
          

      How reproducible:

      Infrequent
          

      Steps to Reproduce:

          1. Multiple reboots occur
          2. Kernel reads a wrong date from the RTC and sets the system time to 30 years in the future
          3.
          

      Actual results:

      System gets the wrong time and fails to come up fully due to certificate errors
          

      Expected results:

      The time is set properly and the system recovers fully.
