[PATCH 0/3] rtc: rtc-hid-sensor-time

[Alexander Holler <holler@ahsoftware.de>]

Hello,

as I'm not sure if the maintainer of the RTC subsystem is active again,
I've added the people which where involved with rtc-hid-sensor-time
before to cc too. That might be a good idea even he is active again,
as the driver depends on hid-sensor-hub and as such works a bit
outside the stuff other RTC drivers do use.

This small series of patches do extend the driver a bit. They make
the driver more standard (draft) compliant and I've added a replacement
for the usual hctosys, because that isn't usable with this driver.

I've already send the first patch two weeks before (unchanged) therefor
I've marked it as RESEND (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/5/177 ).

Actually I wanted to have added another patch to adjust the system time
too (when the clock sends HID reports which are including milliseconds
regulary by itself), but I have to read about the in-kernel timekeeping
(kernel/time/timekeeping.c, kernel/time/ntp.c) for that and I don't know
if I will find the time without missing the next merge window.

Personally I would like if they went into 3.9 too, but beeing realistic,
I'm happy if they end up in 3.11. ;)

If someone is curious about my other side of that driver, I've setup a
website with explanations and source which should make it easy build a
similiar hot-pluggable RTC: http://ahsoftware.de/dcf77-hid-usb-rtc/
