Leapsecond processing is done via an absolute hrtimer. Thus when the time offset is set, the hrtimers that should have expired will fire (just like with settimeofday) and the adjustment will then be made.
How do you convert relative time to absolute time? It's not trivial because TAI offset is also a variable.
