because rtc1685 is used in different systems and accessing the chip
differs between those systems.

I agree

drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1685.c

I could do the same as done for serial8250 and add an additional .c file
in  drivers/rtc which handles this for SGI-IP30. Alexandre would this work
for you as well ?

I don't quite understand what you mean here. Should I move the #define at
the beginning of the file ? Why is it neater ?
