drivers/char/rtc.c exposed a sysctl to change the maximum frequency at
which a non-root user could ask the RTC to generate interrupts (via the
RTC_IRQP_SET ioctl). This value is no longer available under the new RTC
subsystem, so add it to sysfs for each RTC device.
Works for me on x86_64 (both reads and writes), using rtc-cmos.

This simplifies the RTC sysfs 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's another step towards being able to remove "struct 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.

This adds a new "wakealarm" sysfs attribute to RTC class devices which support
alarm operations and are wakeup-capable:
- It reads as either empty, or the scheduled alarm time as seconds
since the POSIX epoch. (That time may already have passed, since
nothing currently enforces one-shot alarm semantics.)
- It can be written with an alarm time in the future, again seconds
since the POSIX epoch, which enables the alarm.
- It can be written with an alarm time not in the future (such as 0,
the start of the POSIX epoch) to disable the alarm.
Usage examples (some need GNU date) after "cd /sys/class/rtc/rtcN":
alarm after 10 minutes:
# echo $(( $(cat since_epoch) + 10 * 60 )) > wakealarm
alarm tuesday evening 10pm:
# date -d '10pm tuesday' "+%s" > wakealarm
disable alarm:
# echo 0 > wakealarm
This resembles the /proc/acpi/alarm file in that nothing happens when the
alarm triggers ... except possibly waking the system from sleep. It's also
like that in a nasty way: not much can be done to prevent one task from
clobbering another task's alarm settings.
It differs from that file in that there's no in-kernel date parser.
Note that a few RTCs ignore rtc_wkalrm.enabled when setting alarms, or aren't
set up correctly, so they won't yet behave with this attribute.

This removes some syslog spam as RTC drivers register; debug messages

This makes RTC core components use "subsys_init" instead of "module_init", as
appropriate for subsystem infrastructure. This is mostly useful for
statically linking drivers in other parts of the tree that may provide an RTC
interface as a secondary functionality (e.g. part of a multifunction chip);
they won't need to worry so much about drivers/Makefile link order.

This patch adds the sysfs interface to the RTC subsystem.
Each RTC client will have his own entry under /sys/classs/rtc/rtcN .
Within this entry some attributes are exported by the subsystem, like date and
time.
