This patchset add the timezone support of ACPI TAD and EFI TIME, it also add codes for adjusting system time base on the timezone value from EFI TIME services when system boot. Those patches bring the following changes: + Add ACPI driver against ACPI000E ACPI Time and Alarm Device. + Add RTC driver of ACPI TAD. + Add rtc ioctl functions, RTC_RD_GMTOFF and RTC_SET_GMTOFF, provide interface to user space for maintain timezone value in BIOS. The GMTOFF names of ioctl functions match with the tm_gmtoff field in rtc_time and tm structure in GNU C library. + Add rtc ioctl function, RTC_CAPS_READ, provide to user space for grab the capabilities value to timezone and daylight of interface. + Moved duplicate functions to efi.h header for convert EFI Time. + When "CMOS RTC not Present" flag set in FADT, block CMOS RTC interface and switch to EFI time services. + Adjusting system time base on timezone from EFI time when system boot. + Add rtc-tz.txt document. Please set CONFIG_RTC_DRV_EFI=m and CONFIG_RTC_ACPI_TAD=m to build RTC ACPI TAD and EFI TIME drivers.For testing, please use "acpi_no_cmos_rtc=1" to set CMOST RTC not Present flag in FADT to trigger the mechanism for adjust system time and block CMOS interface. About the definition of timezone and the format transformation between ACPI, EFI and tm_gmtoff of GNU. Please check the rtc-tz.txt document in patch.
