Applied. Thanks alot for the janitor work.
And also the function names are clear as mud:
[...]
static inline unsigned int get_rtc_time(struct rtc_time *time)
{
unsigned long nowtime;
nowtime = rtc_get_time();
[...]
static inline int set_rtc_time(struct rtc_time *time)
{
unsigned long nowtime;
int ret;
nowtime = mktime(time->tm_year+1900, time->tm_mon+1,
time->tm_mday, time->tm_hour, time->tm_min,
time->tm_sec);
ret = rtc_set_time(nowtime);
[...]
The difference between and get_rtc_time and rtc_get_time is less than
obvious. Same for set_rtc_time and rtc_set_time ...
