John Rose 507279db18 [PATCH] powerpc: reorg RTAS delay code
This patch attempts to handle RTAS "busy" return codes in a more simple
and consistent manner.  Typical callers of RTAS shouldn't have to
manage wait times and delay calls.

This patch also changes the kernel to use msleep() rather than udelay()
when a runtime delay is necessary.  This will avoid CPU soft lockups
for extended delay conditions.

Michael Neuling 0e8ed47912 [PATCH] powerpc: RTC memory corruption
We should be memset'ing the data we are pointing to, not the pointer
itself.  This is in an error path so we probably don't hit it much.

Paul Mackerras 49e16b7bec powerpc: time-of-day fixes for 32-bit CHRP systems
This makes 32-bit CHRP systems use the RTAS time-of-day routines if
available.  It fixes a bug in the RTAS time-of-day routines where they
were storing a 64-bit timebase value in an unsigned long by making
those variables u64.  Also, the direct-access time-of-day routines
had the wrong convention for the month and year in the struct rtc_time.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 3136254ca5 [PATCH] powerpc: kill ppc64 rtc.c, use genrtc instead
This moves the rtas RTC callbacks to rtas-rtc.c in arch/powerpc/kernel,
and kills the rest of arch/ppc64/kernel/rtc.c which was just a duplicate
of the genrtc functionality. Also enable build of genrtc for
CONFIG_PPC64 (it just works are we already have the required callbacks)
and enable it in all defconfigs.
