Logan Gunthorpe d5ed9177f6 rtc: utilize new cdev_device_add helper function
Mostly straightforward, but we had to remove the rtc_dev_add/del_device
functions as they split up the cdev_add and the device_add.

Doing this also revealed that there was likely another subtle bug:
seeing cdev_add was done after device_register, the cdev probably
was not ready before device_add when the uevent occurs. This would
race with userspace, if it tried to use the device directly after
the uevent. This is fixed just by using the new helper function.

Another weird thing is this driver would, in some error cases, call
cdev_add() without calling cdev_init. This patchset corrects this
by avoiding calling cdev_add if the devt is not set.

Dmitry Torokhov 3ee2c40b7a rtc: switch to using is_visible() to control sysfs attributes
Instead of creating wakealarm attribute manually, after the device has been
registered, let's rely on facilities provided by the attribute groups to
control which attributes are visible and which are not. This allows to
create all needed attributes at once, at the same time that we register RTC
class device.

David Brownell cb3a58d2ac rtc: update to class device removal patches
Fix a goof in the revised classdev support for RTCs: make sure the /dev
node info is ready before the device is registered, not after.  Otherwise
the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/dev attribute won't be created and then udev won't
have the information it needs to create the /dev/rtcN node.

David Brownell 7d9f99eccc rtc: simplified /proc/driver/rtc handling
This simplifies the RTC procfs support by removing the class_interface that
hooks it into the rtc core.  If it's configured, then sysfs support is now
part of the RTC core, and is never a separate module.

It also removes the class_interface hook, now that its last remaining user is
gone.  (That API is usable only with a "struct class_device".)

It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".

David Brownell ab6a2d70d1 rtc: rtc interfaces don't use class_device
This patch removes class_device from the programming interface that the RTC
framework exposes to the rest of the kernel.  Now an rtc_device is passed,
which is more type-safe and streamlines all the relevant code.

David Brownell 5726fb2012 rtc: remove /sys/class/rtc-dev/*
This simplifies the /dev support by removing a superfluous class_device (the
/sys/class/rtc-dev stuff) and the class_interface that hooks it into the rtc
core.  Accordingly, if it's configured then /dev support is now part of the
RTC core, and is never a separate module.

It's another step towards being able to remove "struct class_device".
