[Buildroot] Update the current date using ntp.

Hi everyone,

I'm using ntp from buildroot 2018.02.5 in a Rapberry Pi 3B+ HW
platform. These are the packages selected from: Target packages ->
Networking applications

ntp
ntpd
ntpdate

The problem is that ntpd takes around 300 seconds to update the
current date. Is there any way to speed up this process? I have to
wait until the date is updated before doing my tasks and it is very
annoying to wait around 300 seconds.

Best regards.
