Maciej, The following change you made to drivers/char/rtc.c ("Handle memory-mapped chips properly") never made it into mainline. Can you please review the change again and submit it to the appropriate sub-system maintainer. --- linux-2.6.16-rc4/drivers/char/rtc.c 2006-02-19 20:08:44.000000000 +0000 +++ mips-2.6.16-rc4/drivers/char/rtc.c 2006-02-19 20:15:07.000000000 +0000 @@ -35,23 +35,22 @@ * 1.09a Pete Zaitcev: Sun SPARC * 1.09b Jeff Garzik: Modularize, init cleanup * 1.09c Jeff Garzik: SMP cleanup - * 1.10 Paul Barton-Davis: add support for async I/O + * 1.10 Paul Barton-Davis: add support for async I/O * 1.10a Andrea Arcangeli: Alpha updates * 1.10b Andrew Morton: SMP lock fix * 1.10c Cesar Barros: SMP locking fixes and cleanup * 1.10d Paul Gortmaker: delete paranoia check in rtc_exit * 1.10e Maciej W.
