I was wrong about this being rare, this is apparently happening quite
often in most of our m1.small instances

Title:
  dmesg time wildly incorrect on paravirtual EC2 instances.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 14.04 EC2 instances, during startup the dmesg time goes from
  0 seconds to thousands of seconds. This causes kernel logs to be
  recorded for months in the future.

  This appears to be related to the kernel trusting the TSC clock on Xen servers, as described here:

  But I am not sure that is the cause.
