Description:
When I want to run simultaneous ntpd.service and ntpdate.service on boot, so my system time will be quickly fixed and then ntpd will be keeping it accurate, one of them will fail, because ntpd exits when another instance is running and on systemd they will be started in parallel. Patch for ntpdate.service attached that sets strict run order.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
extra/ntp 4.2.6.p5-13
* config and/or log files etc.
Errors in "systemctl status ntpd.service" (instantly exits with code 0) --- when ntpdate started first.
No fixed time right after boot --- when ntpd started first.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable both ntpd.service and ntpdate.service
2. Reboot
3. Check services logs
   ntpdate.service.patch (0.4 KiB)
This task depends upon

Why do I need it --- I run Arch Linux ARM on Raspberry Pi, and I have no RTC there, so the time is resetted each reboot.
