From: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit e09784a8a751e539dffc94d43bc917b0ac1e934a upstream. RTC drivers used to leave .set_alarm() NULL in order to signal the RTC device doesn't support alarms. The drivers are now clearing the RTC_FEATURE_ALARM bit for that purpose in order to keep the rtc_class_ops structure const. So now, .set_alarm() is set unconditionally and this possibly causes the alarmtimer code to select an RTC device that doesn't support alarms. Test RTC_FEATURE_ALARM instead of relying on ops->set_alarm to determine whether alarms are available.
