Add myself as an RTC subsystem maintainer.
Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@free-electrons.com>

Hi,
I've noticed that most of the patches for the RTC subsystem are currently either
taken directly by Andrew or going through another maintainer's tree, quite often
without an Acked-by or Reviewed-by tag.
I'd like to propose myself as the RTC susbsystem co-maintainer, to mainly help
Alessandro reviewing incoming patches and maintain a subsystem tree to avoid
having the RTC patches going through trees when they have no particular
dependencies.

Thanks :)
A few things I consider important:
- a driver for a new hardware usually causes no harm to the subsystem
- a patch for an existing driver should be approved by the original author,
if possible. there are a few chips out there that are quite rare or
have multiple wiring configuration and break very easily.

I'll keep that in mind.
Could you give me permissions on the rtc-linux patchwork?
thanks!
