Public bug reported:

The kernel PPS API appears to be broken. I have a serial GPS with PPS
attached to /dev/ttyS4. If I use gpsd to create /dev/pps0, gpsd fails to
see PPS data. If I disable gpsd and create /dev/pps0 with ldattach, any
app or tool run against ttyS4 works fine and does see the CTS
transitions every second, i.e. gpsmon and ppscheck. Anything run against
pps0 fails, i.e. ppstest, ppswatch. ntpd gets data from ttyS4 but not
pps0.

There are some issues with stock apparmor with gpsd and ntpd, but I have
solved those.
