[PATCH] RTC: rtc-dev UIE emulation
Import genrtc's RTC UIE emulation (CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X) to rtc-dev driver with
slight adjustments/refinements. This makes UIE-less rtc drivers work
better with programs doing read/poll on /dev/rtc, such as hwclock. This
emulation should not harm rtc drivers with UIE support, since
rtc_dev_ioctl() calls underlaying rtc driver's ioctl() first.

This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
will be called rtc-dev.
