sys_linux: drop support for kernels before 2.6.39

Linux 2.6.39 was released in 2011.

Refuse to start if a kernel version before 2.6.39 is detected. Assume
the ADJ_SETOFFSET adjtimex mode is always supported. Its verification
briefly reset the timex maxerror value to 0, which possibly confused
applications checking the value at that moment.

Drop the unneeded workaround for slow frequency updates in versions
2.6.27-2.6.32.
