In the past, each rtc implementation had to rewrite the same ioctls in
order to be compatible. But since 2006, a common RTC interface has been
introduced. Use it for the last user of RTC_MINOR.

Thanks for your patch!

--- a/arch/m68k/bvme6000/rtc.c
+++ b/arch/m68k/bvme6000/rtc.c


 static int __init rtc_DP8570A_init(void)
 {
+       struct platform_device *pdev;
+
        if (!MACH_IS_BVME6000)
                return -ENODEV;

        pr_info("DP8570A Real Time Clock Driver v%s\n", RTC_VERSION);
-       return misc_register(&rtc_dev);
+
+       pdev = platform_device_register_data(NULL, "rtc-generic", -1,
+                                            &dp8570a_rtc_ops,
+                                            sizeof(dp8570a_rtc_ops));

Doesn't this conflict with the creation of the same device in rtc_init()[1]?

On BVME6000, mach_hwclk is set:

    arch/m68k/bvme6000/config.c:    mach_hwclk           = bvme6000_hwclk;

+
+       return PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(pdev);
 }
 module_init(rtc_DP8570A_init);
