[PATCH] RTC subsystem: sysfs interface
This patch adds the sysfs interface to the RTC subsystem.
Each RTC client will have his own entry under /sys/classs/rtc/rtcN .
Within this entry some attributes are exported by the subsystem, like date and
time.

+ Say yes here if you want to use your RTC using the sysfs
+ interface, /sys/class/rtc/rtcX .

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