Actually, I completely agree with you that this isn't KSM issue.
But, I'm referring on your question if we should handle synchronizing hardware clock at powering off versus immediately.
In my opinion, from KSM's perspective, the best course is to immediately synchronize it with system clock, as soon as we set clock (as it is now done by settime.sh script). And maybe, add some additional code in KSM's poweroff script, just in case, if you want to do this, or think there is need to do this.
What other scripts do is outside KSM's scope. And clock would be as accurate as possible, through KSM or some other software.
