The input argument to rtc_time_to_tm() is unsigned as well as are members of
the output structure. However signed arithmetic is used within for
calculations leading to incorrect results for input values outside the signed
positive range. If this happens the time of day returned is out of range.
Found the problem when fiddling with the RTC and the driver where year was set
to an unexpectedly large value like 2070, e.g.:
rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 1193046:71582832:26 UTC (3155760954)
while it should be:
rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 00:15:54 UTC (3155760954)
Changing types to unsigned fixes the problem.

As the old driver_name/type matching scheme is going away soon, change
the dummy device mechanism to use the new matching scheme.
This has the downside that dummy i2c clients can no longer choose
their name, they'll all appear as "dummy" in sysfs and in log
messages. I don't think it is a problem in practice though, as there
is little reason to use these i2c clients to log messages.

The file in drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1551.c uses "int" for flags. This can cause
hard to find bugs on some architectures. This patch converts the flags to use
"long" instead.
This bug was discovered by doing an allyesconfig make on the -rt kernel where
checks are done to ensure all flags are of size sizeof(long).

In current kernel if we want to set the alarm time, the absolute time the
seconds relative to 1970-01-01 00:00:00) should be written into
/sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm. It is not convenient.
It is more reasonable to add the support for the alarm time relative to
current RTC time.(the unit is second)
For example:
If the RTC is required to generate alarm after 2 minutes, the following
will be OK.
echo +120 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm
or echo +0x78 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm

Kconfig tweaks to help reduce RTC configuration bugs, by avoiding
legacy RTC drivers when the generic RTC framework is enabled:
- If rtc-cmos is selected, disable the legacy rtc driver;
- When using generic RTC on x86, enable rtc-cmos by default;
- In the old "chardev RTC" section of Kconfig, add a comment
warning people off these (seven) legacy RTC drivers when
the generic framework is in use.
People can still use the legacy drivers if they want (or need) to.
This doesn't fix the broken dependencies for the legacy "CMOS" RTC driver.
Ideally it would be a full list of platforms where it works, not a partial
list of ones where it won't. Or better yet, it would depend on a
"HAVE_CMOS_RTC" flag defined by various platforms ... surely there's a
Kconfig style guideline lurking there.

AT91sam9 RTC support, primarily in the form of an RTT-as-RTC driver that was
extracted from 2.6.23-at91 patch and updated:
- Relies on now-merged platform updates, which associate the RTT
hardware address with each RTT and use the "at91_rtt" name.
- RTC framework related fixes and cleanups, notably:
* removed now-needless suspend/resume clock offset logic
* alarm read/write now respects the "enabled" flag
* suspend always disables update irqs
* shutdown (and startup) disables all irqs
- Misc cleanup:
* use dev_*() messaging
* add comments
* remove globals,
* ... etc
- Don't force use of RTT0 and GPBR0. Either resource may need
to be used for other purposes (like NO_HZ support).
- Update "AT91RM9200 RTC" Kconfig to allow it on SAM9RL chips
(it has both RTT and RTC).
Driver binding uses bus_find_device() to avoid needing any kind of "timer
library" code when there's more than one RTT module. (This timer can be used
as an RTC, to support NO_HZ operation, or potentially for other stuff. The
choice is a per-system policy.)

Start making the rtc-cmos alarm act more like a oneshot alarm by disabling
that alarm after its IRQ fires. (ACPI hooks are also needed.)
The Linux RTC framework has previously been a bit vague in this area, but
any other behavior is problematic and not very portable. RTCs with full
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM[:SS] alarms won't have a problem here. Only ones with
partial match criteria, with the most visible example being the PC RTC, get
confused. (Because the criteria will match repeatedly.)
Update comments relating to that oneshot behavior and timezone handling.
(Timezones are another issue that's mostly visible with rtc-cmos. That's
because PCs often dual-boot MS-Windows, which likes its RTC to match local
wall-clock time instead of UTC.)

This makes rtc-cmos export its NVRAM, like several other RTC drivers.
It still works within the limits of the current CMOS_READ/CMOS_WRITE calls,
which don't understand how to access multiple register banks. The primary
impact of that limitation is that Linux can't access the uppermost 128
bytes of NVRAM on many systems.
Note that this isn't aiming to be a drop-in replacement for the legacy
/dev/nvram support. (Presumably that has real users, and isn't just
getting carried forward automatically?) Userspace handles more work:
- When userspace code updates NVRAM, that will need to include
updating any platform-specific checksums that may apply.
- No /proc/driver/nvram file will parse and display NVRAM data
according to whichever boot firmware your board expects.
Also minor pnp-related updates: update a comment, remove dead code.
