(repost) Fix month wrap issue with readback from /proc/acpi/alarm This bug has been around *forever*. $ echo '2008-12-01 10:36:20' > /proc/acpi/alarm $ cat /proc/acpi/alarm 2008-11-01 10:36:20 Note how the readback above shows the month incorrectly when the alarm is set in the *next* calendar month. But with this patch applied, it shows the correct month (12). This patch applies/works on 2.6.28-rc6. Probably best to queue it up for the next major cycle.
