This patch adds logging of all attempts to either inject an offset into
the clock (producing an AUDIT_TIME_INJOFFSET record) or adjust an NTP
parameter (producing an AUDIT_TIME_ADJNTPVAL record).
For reference, running the following commands:
auditctl -D
auditctl -a exit,always -F arch=b64 -S adjtimex
chronyd -q
produces audit records like this:

(The struct timex fields above are from *after* the syscall was
executed, so they contain the current (new) values as set from the
kernel, except of the 'modes' field, which contains the original value
sent by the caller.)
The changes to the time_maxerror, time_esterror, and time_constant
variables are not logged, as these are not important for security.
Note that the records are emitted even when the actual value does not
change (i.e. when there is an explicit attempt to change a value, but
the new value equals the old one).
An overview of changes that can be done via adjtimex(2) (based on
information from Miroslav Lichvar) and whether they are audited:
timekeeping_inject_offset() -- injects offset directly into system
time (AUDITED)
__timekeeping_set_tai_offset() -- sets the offset from the
International Atomic Time
(AUDITED)
NTP variables:
time_offset -- can adjust the clock by up to 0.5 seconds per call
and also speed it up or slow down by up to about
0.05% (43 seconds per day) (AUDITED)
time_freq -- can speed up or slow down by up to about 0.05%
time_status -- can insert/delete leap seconds and it also enables/
disables synchronization of the hardware real-time
clock (AUDITED)
time_maxerror, time_esterror -- change error estimates used to
inform userspace applications
(NOT AUDITED)
time_constant -- controls the speed of the clock adjustments that
are made when time_offset is set (NOT AUDITED)
time_adjust -- can temporarily speed up or slow down the clock by up
to 0.05% (AUDITED)
tick_usec -- a more extreme version of time_freq; can speed up or
slow down the clock by up to 10% (AUDITED)
