There are functions in drivers/rtc/rtc-mc146818-lib.c that handle
reading from / writing to the CMOS RTC clock. mach_get_cmos_time() in
arch/x86/kernel/rtc.c did not use them and was mostly a duplicate of
mc146818_get_time(). Modify mach_get_cmos_time() to use
mc146818_get_time() and remove the duplicated code.
As a bonus, mach_get_cmos_time() after the modification does not hang
indefinitely if the CMOS RTC is not present.
mach_get_cmos_time() used a different algorithm than
mc146818_get_time(), but these functions are equivalent. The major
differences were:
- mc146818_get_time() is better refined: it was updated in
commit 05a0302c3548 ("rtc: mc146818: Prevent reading garbage")
to take account of various edge conditions,
- when the UIP ("Update in progress") bit of the RTC is set,
mach_get_cmos_time() was busy waiting with cpu_relax() while
mc146818_get_time() is now using mdelay(1) in every loop iteration,
- mach_get_cmos_time() assumed that the RTC year must be >= 2000, which
may not be true on some old boxes with a dead battery,
- mach_get_cmos_time() was holding the rtc_lock for a long time.
The RTC writing counterpart, mach_set_rtc_mmss() is already using
mc146818_get_time() from drivers/rtc. This was done in
commit 3195ef59cb42 ("x86: Do full rtc synchronization with ntp")
It appears that mach_get_cmos_time() was simply forgotten.
mach_get_cmos_time() is really used only in read_persistent_clock64(),
which is called only in a few places in kernel/time/timekeeping.c .

v2:
- use pr_err() in place of pr_err_ratelimited(). mach_get_cmos_time()
is not called frequently, so ratelimiting is not necessary.
- tweak commit description.
