For both patches:
Tested-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@...e.com>
I am not familiar with the timekeeping code so that I could not
provide a valuable review. Anyway, the patches seem to work
as expected.
The interface is perfectly fine for printk() needs.
I tested them with the patch below. The first timestamps appear
as early as before:

The realtime timestamps get ready later as expected:
[ 0.073075] [ 0.073075][1970-01-01T00:00:00][ T0] rcu: Adjusting geometry for rcu_fanout_leaf=16, nr_cpu_ids=3

[ 0.076014] [ 0.076014][2020-08-20T07:58:46][ T0] printk: console [tty0] enabled
Also suspend resume seems to work as expected. I tested it the follwing way:
echo core > /sys/power/pm_test
echo reboot > /sys/power/disk
echo disk > /sys/power/state
and the result is:

Subject: [PATCH] printk: Test using all three timestamps: mono, boot, real
Test timekeeper enhancements proposed at
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200814101933.574326079@linutronix.de
Allow to store and show all three timestamp (mono, boot, real).
It is not final solution. The prefix takes 83 characters that might
make the real text invisible or hard to read. Fragments of seconds
are lost in when printing real time timestamp. Offset is not provided
for crashdump tools.
Only syslog interface is supported. The log can be seen on consoles
or via:
dmesg -S
