The patch titled Subject: rtc: refine rtc_timer_do_work() to consider other set alarm failures has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was rtc-refine-rtc_timer_do_work-to-consider-other-set-alarm-failures.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Xunlei Pang <pang.xunlei@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: rtc: refine rtc_timer_do_work() to consider other set alarm failures rtc_timer_do_work() only judges -ETIME failure of__rtc_set_alarm(), but doesn't handle other failures like -EIO, -EBUSY, etc. If there is a failure other than -ETIME, the next rtc_timer will stay in the timerqueue. Then later rtc_timers will be enqueued directly because they have a later expires time, so the alarm irq will never be programmed. When such failures happen, this patch will retry __rtc_set_alarm(), if still can't program the alarm time, it will remove current rtc_timer from timerqueue and fetch next one, thus preventing it from affecting other rtc timers.
