From the NEWS file:

  * If the RTC (real time clock) is set to local time and the local time is
    ahead of UTC, e2fsck will print a warning during boot about the time
    changing backward (bug #767040).  You can disable this by putting the
    following lines in /etc/e2fsck.conf:
        [options]
        broken_system_clock=1

I don't know why you would see a forced fsck rather than only a warning.
But does that configuration change work for you?

Ben.
