   imkmsg: add module param parseKernelTimestamp
   The parameter permits to select whether or not and when kernel
   timestamps shall parsed, that is be used as the actual time a
   log message occurs.
   
   This permits to work around problems with the way kernel
   timestamps are represented. The reasoning is given in a sysklogd
   commit by Joachim Wiberg, which we reproduce below ("QUOTE") to
   have a stable reference.
   
   The commit itself can be found for example at:
   https://github.com/troglobit/sysklogd/commit/9f6fbb3301e571d8af95f8d771469291384e9e95
   
   The new parameter parseKernelTimestamp has three possible modes:
   
   "startup" - uses the kernel time stamp during the initial read
   loop of /dev/kmsg, but replaced it later ignores it for later reads.
   This is the DEFAULT setting.
   
   "on" - kernel timestamps are always used and no correction is tried
   
   "off" - kernel timestamps are never used, system time is used instead
   
   Note that there this is a slightly breaking change. Previously, imkmsg
   reported similar to "off" mode, now it reports by default in "startup"
   mode. We consider this acceptable, as "off" mode timestamps are not
   correct for startup. After startup, the behaviour is correct. All in
   all, the new default is kind of a bugfix.
   
   ============== QUOTE ===============
   The spec[1] says the /dev/kmsg timestamp is a monotonic clock and in
   microseconds.  After a while you realize it's also relative to the boot
   of the system, that fact was probably too obvious to be put in the spec.
   However, what's *not* in the spec, and what takes a while to realize, is
   that this monotonic time is *not* adjusted for suspend/resume cycles ...
   
   On a frequently used laptop this can manifest itself as follows.  The
   kernel is stuck on Nov 15, and for the life of me I cannot find any to
   adjust for this offset:
   
       $ dmesg -T |tail -1; date
       [Mon Nov 15 01:42:08 2021] wlan0: Limiting TX power to 23 (23 - 0) dBm as advertised by 18:e8:29:55:b0:62
       Tue 23 Nov 2021 05:20:53 PM CET
   
   Hence this patch.  After initial "emptying" of /dev/kmsg when syslogd
   starts up, we raise a flag (denoting done with backlog), and after this
   point we ignore the kernel's idea of time and replace it with the actual
   time we have now, the same that userspace messages are logged with.
   
   Sure, there will be occasions where there's a LOT of kernel messages to
   read and we won't be able to keep track.  Yet, this patch is better than
   the current state (where we log Nov 15).
