[PATCH 0/3] repair RTC subsys (for i.MX)

[Wolfram Sang]

The recent updates to the RTC subsystem (removing UIE interrupts and use
alarms instead) introduced two problems for i.MX (and the subsys in
general, I'd think):

a) because registering the rtc now calls get_alarm(), the requirement
has been added for a lot of drivers that drvdata is properly set up
_before_ registering. rtc-mxc did not do that (probably bad; but as said
like a lot of other rtc-drivers currently) and oopsed.

b) the callbacks to the rtc-core for update_irqs have been removed, but
irq-handlers are still there, now being unused cruft. In case of
rtc-mxc, this is only one if-block, but for rtc-mc13xxx.c this is a
seperate handler.

>From a glimpse, most platform drivers seem to have at least one of these
problems now :( John, am I correct or am I missing something?

Kind regards,
