First of all I'm not maintainer of boot.clock, second there is no
shell function synchronize_to_clock_tick() within the boot scripts
nor I've written any one (if the C source of hwclock uses such a
function you should ask the author of hwclock), third one the initial
/etc/adjtime is fully correct as this file is written (if exist) at
shutdown (compare with manual page).
Btw: Yes we need an accurate time to get correct mount time in the
inodes of the mounted file systems. Beside this at mount time there
is no ntp, no network to reach a ntp server, and AFAIK most systems
out there do not have a radio clock on board.
