Some problems with reading the RTC time may happen rarely, for example
while the RTC is updating. So read the RTC many times to catch these
problems. For example, a previous attempt for my
commit ea6fa4961a ("rtc: mc146818-lib: fix RTC presence check")
was incorrect and would have triggered this selftest.
To avoid the risk of damaging the hardware, wait 11ms before consecutive
reads.
In rtc_time_to_timestamp I copied values manually instead of casting -
just to be on the safe side. The 11ms wait period was chosen so that it is
not a divisor of 1000ms.

The timeout setting for the rtc kselftest is currently 90 seconds. This
setting is used by the kselftest runner to stop running a test if it
takes longer than the assigned value.
However, two of the test cases inside rtc set alarms. These alarms are
set to the next beginning of the minute, so each of these test cases may
take up to, in the worst case, 60 seconds.
In order to allow for all test cases in rtc to run, even in the worst
case, when using the kselftest runner, the timeout value should be
increased to at least 120. Set it to 180, so there's some additional
slack.
Correct operation can be tested by running the following command right
after the start of a minute (low second count), and checking that all
test cases run:
./run_kselftest.sh -c rtc

Commit a745f7af3c ("selftests/harness: Add 30 second timeout per
test") solves the problem of kselftest_harness.h-using binary tests
possibly hanging forever. However, scripts and other binaries can still
hang forever. This adds a global timeout to each test script run.
To make this configurable (e.g. as needed in the "rtc" test case),
include a new per-test-directory "settings" file (similar to "config")
that can contain kselftest-specific settings. The first recognized field
is "timeout".
Additionally, this splits the reporting for timeouts into a specific
"TIMEOUT" not-ok (and adds exit code reporting in the remaining case).
