  ntp: Use freezable workqueue for RTC synchronization (2021-02-05 18:03:13 +0100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
- Use a freezable workqueue for RTC sync because the sync can happen at any time
and trigger suspend assertion checks in the i2c subsystem.

- Correct a previous RTC validation change to check only bit 6 in register D
because some Intel machines use bits 0-5.
