[PATCH v2 1/2] rtc: pcf2127: Disable Power-On Reset Override

[Philipp Rosenberger <p.rosenberger@kunbus.com>]

To resume normal operation after a total power loss (no or empty
battery) the "Power-On Reset Override (PORO)" facility needs to be
disabled.

As the oscillator may take a long time (200 ms to 2 s) to resume normal
operation. The default behaviour is to use the PORO facility. But with
the PORO active no interrupts are generated on the interrupt pin (INT).
