[PATCH 1/3] rtc: sh: stop resetting time to epoch

[PATCH 1/3] rtc: sh: stop resetting time to epoch

[Alexandre Belloni]

There is no point in resetting the time to epoch as this means that
userspace will never get the valuable information that time is actually
invalid.

[PATCH 2/3] rtc: sh: fix possible race condition

[Alexandre Belloni]

The IRQ is requested before the struct rtc is allocated and registered, but
this struct is used in the IRQ handler. This may lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.

Switch to devm_rtc_allocate_device/rtc_register_device to allocate the rtc
struct before requesting the IRQ.

[PATCH 3/3] rtc: sh: set range

[Alexandre Belloni]

The SH RTC is a BCD RTC with some version having 4 digits for the year.

The range for the RTCs with only 2 digits for the year was unfortunately
shifted to handle 1999 to 2098.

Is this due to leap seconds, and mktime64() is valid for 1970 and later only?

That's a bug, it seems I didn't use the correct timezone when doing the
calculation. Thanks for spotting that, you can send a patch to correct
it or I can do it.
