This should probably be

           depends on M68K || COMPILE_TEST
           depends on RTC_DRV_GOLDFISH

A driver should never 'select' another user-selectable subsystem

ok

As mentioned elsewhere, the __raw_* accessors are not portable, please
use readl()/writel() here, or possibly ioread32_be()/iowrite32_be() for
the big-endian variant.

We can't use readl()/writel() here because it's supposed to read from a little endian device, and goldfish endianness depends on the endianness of the machine.

For goldfish, readl()/writel() works fine on little-endian machine but not on big-endian machine.

On m68k, you have:

#define readl(addr)      in_le32(addr)
#define writel(val,addr) out_le32((addr),(val))

and with goldfish it's wrong as the device is not little-endian, it is big-endian like the machine.

same comment with ioread32_be()/iowrite32_be(): it will work on big-endian machine not on little-endian.

We need an accessor that doesn't byteswap the value, that accesses it natively, and in all other parts of the kernel __raw_writel() and __raw_readl() are used.

Thanks,
Laurent
