This is a generic implementation of rtc_read_persistent_clock() and
rtc_update_persistent_clock() suitable for platforms to be used for
read_persistent_clock() and update_persistent_clock() calls. An RTC
device selected by the user with the RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE option is used.
As rtc_read_persistent_clock() is not available at the time
timekeeping_init() is called, it will now be disabled if the class device
is to be used as a reference. In this case rtc_hctosys(), already
present, will be used to set up the system time at the late initcall time.
This call has now been rewritten to make use of
rtc_read_persistent_clock().
As rtc_set_mmss() used by rtc_update_persistent_clock() may sleep for
some hardware, the call is now made from a work queue scheduled by the
timer originally used for the entire function.

The driver for this RTC device must be loaded before late_initcall
functions run, so it must usually be statically linked.
