Now, I know I'm a bit late, and I've been quiet of late, but, um, why is
there anything other than the RTC class stuff being used?  I know
drivers/char/genrtc.c isn't gone yet, but really, it should be in the
process of being phased out.  IMHO, it should depend on !POWERPC (or
whatever the magic is to allow arch/ppc && !arch/powerpc).
