I have not added platform data for setting epoch start time. I think we 
should be fine to hardcode in probe itself.

The irq support is there as the mfd driver put proper alarm irq for rtc 
when it adds mfd sub devices. The ultimate irq number allocated run time 
through ird domain.
I tested with RTC test wwhich is part of Documentation/rtc.txt.
