That is what I meant. Pass the return value of rtc_valid_tm on, instead of

You can still keep the dev_err though, no problem with that.

Okay, I got confused by this and thought you were referring to the quoted test box below in your first response. My bad. You're referring to the tail end of ds1685_rtc_read_time.

To clarify, this construct exists in four existing RTC drivers. If this is wrong, I suggest fixing these four drivers, lest someone else come along and try to copy the idea, thinking it's the RightThing();

	drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1553.c:131
	drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1742.c:119
	drivers/rtc/rtc-rs5c348.c:136
	drivers/rtc/rtc-stk17ta8.c:133

I am going to assume the proper approach is:
	return rtc_Valid_tm(tm);


Cheers!,
