So you want us to kill the ppc_md.[gs]et_rtc_time() [ppc], mach_hwclk() [m68k],
mach_gettod() [m68knommu] (and probably a few other) abstractions, and move all
RTC code out of arch/ into seperate drivers under drivers/rtc/ instead?
That's the ideal... although did we get NTP sync working again yet?
not yet. we're close but I've been very busy :(
I know the feeling.
Once that's working, we can convert individual PPC platforms over,
removing the routines from the ppc_md and creating a generic RTC driver
instead. PA Electra is already like that -- because it wasn't a
regression there to have broken NTP sync. But the others need to wait.
I didn't know NTP was broken with RTC class drivers?
So we should actually keep on using genrtc instead of rtc-ppc/rtc-generic for
now? ;-)
