            Log:
            test if systemd-timesyncd can watch the /run/systemd/ directory

The use of the systemd-timesyncd service revealed that SELinux
prevents the systemd-timesyncd processes from watching (syscall =
inotify_add_watch) the /run/systemd/ directory. The TC reproduces
the situation.

In order to successfully start the systemd-timesyncd service in
enforcing mode, I believe that this access should be allowed in
SELinux policy. The TC looks for appropriate policy rules and
file context patterns.

The TC covers BZ#2175137.
