New description:

 {{{
 For 522969 -  ext3 superblock in future
 For users in certain timezones and/or with hardware clocks ticking
 local time, they encounter full-blown fscks on bootup when fsck
 discovers that superblock timestamps are significantly different
 from the current time.  This is a regression from F11.

 The patch in question just renames an existing config variable,
 "buggy_init_scripts" to "accept_time_fudge" and defaults it to "1"
 to allow up to 24h of time difference w/o forcing a full fsck.
 Ubuntu has used the "buggy_init_scripts" for several releases
 now.  The rest of the patch is comment & doc updates.
