From: Ales Novak <alnovak@xxxxxxx> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. =============== commit ee1d90146815fdc8d653c558b327fff2acba041d upstream. In __rtc_read_alarm(), if the alarm time retrieved by rtc_read_alarm_internal() from the device contains invalid values (e.g. month=2,mday=31) and the year not set (=-1), the initialization will loop infinitely because the year-fixing loop expects the time being invalid due to leap year. Fix reduces the loop to the leap years and adds final validity check.
