Hi Andy,

get_wallclock() and set_wallclock() are function pointers of platform_ops
which are initialized to mach_get_cmos_time() and mach_set_rtc_mmss()

discouraged, so the only way is to modify RTC get/set functions.
Shouldn't it be platform agnostic code?
So, my point is, instead of hacking two functions, perhaps better to avoid them
at all.
Sorry, i could not understand your point. The changes are platform
agnostic i.e. it doesn't break existing use cases. Are you recommending
to add a new platform and make changes there ?
Nope, I propose to do something like
void __init foo()
{
if (platform has RTC)
return;
set_wallclock = noop;
get_wallclock = noop;
}
Thanks. I will work out a V2 patch as per your suggestion
and send out for review again.

Rahul
