Subject: [PATCH util-linux] dmesg: adjust timestamps according to suspended
 time

Timestamps in kernel log comes from monotonic clocksource which does not
tick when system suspended. Suspended time easily sums into hours and days
rendering human readable timestamps in dmesg useless.

Adjusting timestamps accouring to current delta between boottime and
monotonic clocksources produces accurate timestamps for messages printed
since last resume. Which are supposed to be most interesting.
