Subject: [PATCH] kernel: Update note about heart rebooting on NTP updates
The timestamp code in heart uses monotonic time so it is immune to NTP
changes.

times out and tries to reboot the system. This can occur, for
example, if the system clock is adjusted automatically by use of the
Network Time Protocol (NTP).</p>
