Subject: rtc: use the IRQ callback interface in (old) RTC driver
From: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@xxxxxxx>

That function uses the new registration callback mechanism which was added in
the previous patch in the old RTC driver.  It also removes the direct
rtc_interrupt() call from arch/x86/kernel/hpetc.c so that there's finally no
(code) dependency to CONFIG_RTC in arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c.

Because of this, it's possible to compile the drivers/char/rtc.ko driver as
module and still use the HPET emulation functionality.  This is also expressed
in Kconfig.
