Log:
test if systemd-timesyncd can watch the / directory
Recent testing revealed, that systemd-timesyncd service wants to
use the inotify_add_watch syscall on the root directory during boot.
Unfortunately, SELinux policy denies that access.
I believe that the access is harmless and should be allowed.
The TC looks for appropriate policy rule.
The TC covers BZ#1949315.
